14.Probability
easy
A die is thrown, find the probability of following events: A number less than or equal to one will appear,
A
$\frac{1}{6}$
B
$\frac{1}{6}$
C
$\frac{1}{6}$
D
$\frac{1}{6}$
Solution
The sample space of the given experiment is given by
$S=\{1,2,3,4,5,6\}$
Let $C$ be the event of the occurrence of a number less than or equal to one.
Accordingly, $C\{1\}$
$\therefore P(C)=\frac{\text { Number of outcomes favourable to } C}{\text { Total number of possible outcomes }}=\frac{n(C)}{n(S)}=\frac{1}{6}$
