Question

1. The numbers 1 through 15 were each written on

Answer 1

The probability that a paper with a number less than 9 is written on it is 0.533

Recall :

Probability = Required outcome ÷ total possible outcomes

Numbers less than 9 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 = 8

Total possible outcomes = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15 = 15

Hence, P(less Than 9) = 8/15 = 0.533

Therefore, the probability of picking a paper with a value less than 9 is 0.533
