Question

IN a non leap year, what is the probability of 53 Monday

Answer 1

the answer is 53/365

Answer 2

Any non - leap year has 365 days. We have, 365 days 1 day = ( 527 - 1 )days. 1 day = 52 weeks, so a non - leap year has 52 Monday’s. The remaining one day can be Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday or Saturday. Total number of outcomes = 7 Let E denote the event that a non - leap year has 53 Monday’s. There is only one outcome in favour of that event E i.e, the remaining one Day is a Monday. Number of favourable outcomes = 1 Thus, the probability of a non - leap year having 53 Monday’s is 1/7...
