Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Virat hit 23 centuries during a span of 100 innings
To find:
The probability that he did not hit a century in one of his innings selected at random
Solution:
Probability is the possibility of the happening of any of the events. The probability of the event is given by:
P[E] = Favourable outcome/total number of the outcomes
We have given that the Virat had played the 100 innings in which he gets 23 centuries,
so,
The number of innings in which Virat is not getting centuries is
100-23 = 77
P[not getting the century] = Favourable outcome/total number of the outcomes
P[not getting the century] = 77/100
P[not getting the century] = 0.77
The probability that he did not hit a century in one of his innings selected at random is 0.77
