Question

Question : Which of these numbers cannot be a probability? a) -0.00001 b) 0.5 c) 1.001 d) 0 e) 1 f) 20%

Answer 1

Answer:because probability of an event can never be negative .. probability of an event lies between 0 to 1 . It can't be greater than 1 neither smaller than 0

Explanation:

Answer 2

The correct answer is option (a) -0.00001.

• The value of probability can never be negative. Chances are a mathematical branch is about the numerical interpretations of how likely an event is, or how likely it is that the proposal will be true.
• The probability of an event is a number between 0 and 1, where, as we speak, 0 indicates the impossibility of the event and 1 indicates certainty. The higher the chances of an event, the more likely it is that the event will take place.
