someone is asked to make number from 1 to 100 probability that is multiple of 2 is
Answers
Answer:
1/2 is the answer.......
Answer:
P(of get a multiple of 2) = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Here,
1 is odd
2 is even

.
100 is even,
Thus,
the sequence starts with an odd number and ends with an even number
∴ Number of even numbers = Number of odd numbers
We know that, from 1 to 100 there are,
(100 - 1) + 1 = 100 digits,
Thus,
odd numbers + even numbers = 100
even number + even numbers = 100 [Because Number of even numbers = Number of odd numbers]
2 × even numbers = 100
Number of even numbers = 100/2
Number of even numbers = 50
I have checked even numbers because multiples of 2 follow such an order.
Now,
Possible outcomes = 50
Total outcome = 100
Thus,
P(of get a multiple of 2) = 50/100
P(of get a multiple of 2) = 1/2
Hope it helped and believing you understood it........All the best.
