Question

the probability of getting a rotten egg from a lot of 400 eggs is 0.25 find the answer of the Rotten eggs.

Answer 1

Let the number of bad eggs = x

Given: Probability of bad eggs = 0.035

Total number of eggs = 400

As, we know that,

Probability =Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes

⇒0.035 = x/400 

⇒0.035×400=x

or

x=14

∴Total no. of bad eggs = 14

Answer 2

Probability of getting rotten egg =0.25
Total no. of eggs=400
Let no. of rotten eggs be x
So we have,
x/400=0.25
x= 400*0.25
x=100
So there are 100 rotten eggs.
