Question

The numbers 1 through 15 were cach written on

Answer 1

Using the probability concept, it is found that there is a $\frac{x - 1}{15}$ probability of drawing a piece of paper with a number less than x written on it.

--------------------------------

• A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

• There is a total of 15 numbers numbered from 1 to 15.
• Of those, x - 1(subtraction by one as the smallest number is x) will be less than x.

Thus, the probability of drawing a piece of paper with a number less than x written on it is of $\frac{x - 1}{15}$.
