# There Are 25 Discs Numbered 1 to 25. They Are Put in a Closed Box Anx Shaken Thoroughly. a Disc is Drawn at Random from the Box. Find the Probability that the Number on the Disc is : - ICSE Class 10 - Mathematics

#### Question

There are 25 discs numbered 1 to 25. They are put in a closed box anx shaken thoroughly. A disc is drawn at random from the box.
Find the probability that the number on the disc is :
(i) an odd number
(ii) divisible by 2 and 3 both.
(iii) a number less than 16.

#### Solution

(i) an odd number = {1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15,17,19,21,23,25}

∴ Probability of an odd number =13/25

(ii) Divisible by 2 and 3 both = { 6,12,18,24 }

Probability of the number divisible by 2 and 3 both = 4/25

(iii) Probability a number less than 16 =15/25 = 3/5

Is there an error in this question or solution?
