the probability that the month of june may have 5 monday in a non leap year
Answers
Probability of getting 5 Mondays in month of June is 2/7.
Step-by-step explanation:
- Total number of days in June = 30
- Therefore, there must be 4 Mondays, 4 Tuesdays, 4 Wednesdays, ….. 4 Sundays.
- Rest days = 30 - 7 x 4 = 30 - 28 = 2.
- These 2 days may be (i) Sunday & Monday, (ii) Monday & Tuesday, (iii) Tuesday & Wednesday, (iv) Wednesday & Thursday, (v) Thursday & Friday, (vi) Friday & Saturday, (vii) Saturday & Sunday.
- Hence, total outcomes for these 2 days. (Rest 2 days) is n(S) = 7
- Outcomes favourable to 5 Mondays are Monday & Tuesday and Sunday & Monday.
- Number of outcomes favourable to get 5 Mondays is n(E) = 2.
- ∴ Probability of getting 5 Mondays in month of June is P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 2/7.
The probability of that month June have 5 mondays in a non leap year is 2/7
Given :
The month of June in a non leap year
To find :
The probability of that month June have 5 mondays in a non leap year
Solution :
Step 1 of 3 :
Find total number of possible outcomes
The month of June has 30 days
30 days = 4 weeks 2 days
Now 4 weeks contains 4 Mondays
2 days is one of the below
( Sunday, Monday), ( Monday, Tuesday), (Tuesday, Wednesday), ( Wednesday, Thursday), ( Thursday, Friday), ( Friday, Saturday ), (Saturday, Sunday)
So the total number of possible outcomes = 7
Step 2 of 3 :
Find total number of possible outcomes for the event
Let A be the event that month June have 5 mondays in a non leap year
So the total event points for the event A is ( Sunday, Monday), ( Monday, Tuesday)
So the total number of possible outcomes for the event A is 2
Step 3 of 3 :
Find the probability
Hence the required probability
= P(A)
