A box contains 90 discs which are numbered from 1 to 90. If one disc is drawn at random from the box, find the probability that it bears
(i) a two-digit number
(ii) a perfect square number.
(iii) a number divisible by 5.
OR
One card is drawn from a well shuffled deck of 52 cards. Find the probability of getting
(i) A king of red colour.
(ii) A spade
(iii) The queen of diamonds
(iv)
(i) 10,11,12…90 are two digit numbers. There are 81 numbers. So,
Probability of getting a two-digit number
= 81/90 = 9/10
(ii)1, 4, 9,16,25,36,49,64,81 are perfect squares. So, Probability of getting
a perfect square number = 9/90 = 1/10
(iii) 5, 10,15….90 are divisible by 5. There are 18 outcomes. So, probability
of getting a number divisible by 5 = 18/90 = 1/5
OR
(i) Probability of getting A king of red colour.
P (King of red colour) = 2/52 = 1/26
(ii) Probability of getting A spade
P ( a spade) = 13/52 = 1/4
(iii) Probability of getting The queen of diamonds
P ( a the queen of diamonds) = 1/52
