Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer :- Correct Option is B. 0

The probability of an impossible event is 0.

Extra Information :-

An event which has no chance of occurring is called an impossible event.

Then, the probability of an impossible event is always 0.

The sum of all the probabilities of all possible outcomes is 1.

Required probability = Number of trials of event E/Total number of trials.

For example :-

When we throw a die, then the event "getting a number greater than 6".is an impossible event, as the highest number in a die is 6.
