The value of π up to 50 decimal places is given below:
3.14159265358979323846264338327950288419716939937510
(i) Make a frequency distribution of the digits from 0 to 9 after the decimal point.
(ii) What are the most and the least frequently occurring digits?
The parts of the questions are solved below:
(i) The frequency is given as follows:
DIGITS | FREQUENCY |
0 | 2 |
1 | 5 |
2 | 5 |
3 | 8 |
4 | 4 |
5 | 5 |
6 | 4 |
7 | 4 |
8 | 5 |
9 | 8 |
Total | 30 |
(ii) The digit having the least frequency occurs the least and the digit with highest frequency occurs the most.
Hence,
We can say that:
0 has its frequency as 2 and thus occurs least frequently while 3 and 9 have their frequency 8 and hence occur most frequently.
