in the fig square dart board is shown the length of a side of the larger square is 1.5 times the length of a side of the smaller square. if a dart is thrown and lands on the larger square what is the probability that it will land in the interior of the smaller square

Let length of side of smaller square = a
Then length of side of bigger square = 1.5a
Area of smaller square = a^2
Area of bigger square = (1.5)2a2 = 2.25a^2.
Probability that dart will land in the interior of the smaller square = (Area of smaller square)/(Area of bigger square) = a^2/2.25a^2 = 1/2.25
∵ Geometrical probability,
P(E) = (measure of specified region part)/(measure of the whole region)
Then length of side of bigger square = 1.5a
Area of smaller square = a^2
Area of bigger square = (1.5)2a2 = 2.25a^2.
Probability that dart will land in the interior of the smaller square = (Area of smaller square)/(Area of bigger square) = a^2/2.25a^2 = 1/2.25
∵ Geometrical probability,
P(E) = (measure of specified region part)/(measure of the whole region)

4/9 is the probability that dart will land in the interior of the smaller square if it lands on the larger square
Step-by-step explanation:
length of a side of the larger square is 1.5 times the length of a side of the smaller square
Let say side of smaller square = a
Area of smaller square = a²
Area of interior = a²
Side of Larger Square = 1.5a
Area of Larger Square = (1.5a)² = 2.25a²
Area of exterior = 2.25a² - a² = 1.25a²
Dart lands in larger square = 2.25a²
Dart land in the interior of the smaller square = a²/2.25a²
= 1/2.25
= 4/9
