Question

Probability of perfect square between 50

Answer 1

here's your answer

First of all , a perfect square is a number that can be expressed as the product of two equal integers. In other words, the square root of a perfect square is an integer. For example, 25 is a perfect square because 25 = 5 x 5.

The perfect squares from 1 to 50 are: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, and 49 for a total of seven (7). So, if you randomly pick a number from 1 to 50, there are 50 possibilities or outcomes and 7 successes, i.e., choosing a perfect square; therefore, ...

The probability of choosing a perfect sq. = (no. of successes)/(no. of possibilities)

= 7/50

= .14

= 14/100

= 14% is the probability of choosing a perfect square from the set of integers from 1 to 50
