Q22 of 180 Page 2

One ticket is drawn at random from a bag containing tickets numbered 1 to 40. What is the probability that the selected ticket has a number which is a multiple of 5?

OR


A coin is tossed two times. Find the probability of getting atmost one head.


Number of total outcomes = 40

Multiples of 5 between 1 to 40 = 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40


Total number of possible outcomes = 8


Required probability


OR


The possible outcomes, if a coin is tossed 2 times is


S = {(HH), (TT), (HT), (TH)}


Total outcome = 4


Let E = Event of getting at – most one head = {(TT), (HT), (TH)}


Favourable outcome = 3


Hence, required probability
