Question

A random number generator is used to select an integer from 1 to 5050 ​(inclusively). What is the probability of selecting the integer 2424​?

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability of selecting the integer 2424​ is 0.0000198.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample size of the set of random number generated is, N = 5050.

The integer 2424 is consisted in the range 1 - 5050.

The probability of an event, say E, is:

$P(E)=\frac{Favorable\ outcomes}{Total\ no.\ of\ outcomes}$

The probability of selecting the integer 2424​ is:

$P(2424)=\frac{1}{5050} = 0.0000198$

Thus, the probability of selecting the integer 2424​ is 0.0000198.
