The probability of picking a whole number from {-1, -4, 0,3,7}
Answers
Given, {-1, -4, 0,3,7}
We have to find the probability of picking a whole number from {-1, -4, 0,3,7}
The probability is calculated by:
Divide the number of events by the number of possible outcomes.
Here,
The event is picking a whole number.
We know that,
The term “whole number” is informal, and typically refers to a positive integer.
So, The event is picking a whole number E =
So, the number of event is
and the number of possible outcome is
probability
The probability of picking a whole number is
SOLUTION
TO DETERMINE
The probability of picking a whole number from {- 1 , - 4 , 0 , 3 , 7 }
EVALUATION
Here the given numbers are {- 1 , - 4 , 0 , 3 , 7 }
Total numbers in the set = 5
So total number of possible outcomes = 5
Let A be the event that of picking a whole number
Since among - 1 , - 4 , 0 , 3 , 7 the whole numbers are 0 , 3 , 7
Number of whole numbers = 3
So total number of possible outcomes for the event A is 3
Hence the required probability
= P(A)
