Q4 of 18 Page 73

From all two-digit numbers with either digit 1, 2, or 3 one number is chosen.

i) What is the probability of both digits being the same?


ii) What is the probability of the sum of the digits being 4?

Sample space:


11, 12, 13


21, 22, 23


31, 32, 33


i Total number of numbers formed = 9


Total number of numbers having same digit = 3


Probability of both digits being the same




= 0.33


ii Total number of numbers formed = 9


Total number of numbers sum being 4 = 3


Probability of both digits being the same




= 0.33
