Question

In a cricket match ,a batsman hits a boundary 8 times out of 30 balls he plays. Find the probability that he did not hits a boundary.

Answer 1

total outcomes is 30
hitting boundaries is 8
not hitting the boundaries is 30-8=22
P(not hitting the boundaries)=22/30
=11/15

Answer 2

$\fbox\pink{S}\fbox\blue{O}\fbox\green{L}\fbox\red{U}\fbox\purple{T}\fbox\orange{I}\fbox\pink{O}\fbox\red{N}$

Accroding to the question,

• Total number of balls = 30
• Numbers of baundary = 8

So, number of times batsman didn't hit the boundary = (30-8)=22

Probability he didn't hit a boundary = 22/30=11/15
