Question

Which of the following cannot be a probability?

Answer 1

(1)

We know that

probability = ( number of favourable outcomes)/( total number of possible outcomes)

and

number of favourable outcomes is always less than or equal to total number of possible outcomes

so, maximum value of probability is 1

and it's minimum value is 0

so, we get

$0\leq p\leq 1$

so, option-D.........Answer

(2)
