Question 1:

A coin is tossed 1000 times with the following frequencies:

Head: 445, Tail: 555
When a coin is tossed at random, what is the probability of getting (i) a head? (ii) a tail?

Answer:

Total number of times a coin is tossed = 1000
Number of times a head comes up = 445
Number of times a tail comes up = 555

(i) Probability of getting a head = Number of headsTotal no. of trails=4451000=0.445

(ii) Probability of getting a tail = Number of tailsTotal no. of trails=5551000=0.555

Question 2:

A die is thrown 100 times and outcomes are noted as given below:

Outcome: 1 2 3 4 5 6
Frequency: 21 9 14 23 18 15
If a die is thrown at random, find the probability of getting a/an.
(i) 3
(ii) 5
(iii) 4
(iv) Even number
(v) Odd number
(vi) Number less than 3.

Answer:

Total number of trials = 100

Number of times "1" comes up = 21
Number of times "2" comes up = 9
Number of times "3" comes up = 14
Number of times "4" comes up = 23
Number of times "5" comes up = 18
Number of times "6" comes up = 15


(i) Probability of getting 3

=frequency of 3Total no. of trails=14100=0.14

(ii) Probability of getting 5

= frequency of 5Total no. of trails=18100=0.18

(iii) Probability of getting 4

=frequency of 4Total no. of trails=23100=0.23

(iv) Frequency of getting an even no. = Frequency of 2 + Frequency of 4 + Frequency of 6 = 9+ 23 + 15 = 47

Probability of getting an even no. =frequency of even no.Total no. of trails=47100=0.47


(v) Frequency of getting an  odd no. = Frequency of 1 + Frequency of 3 + Frequency of 5 = 21+ 14 + 18 = 53

Probability of getting an odd no. =frequency of odd no.Total no. of trails=53100=0.53


(vi) Frequency of getting a no. less than 3 = Frequency of 1 + Frequency of 2= 21 + 9 = 30

Probability of getting a no. less than 3

=frequency of no. less than 3Total no. of trails=30100=0.30

Question 3:

A box contains two pair of socks of two colours (black and white). I have picked out a white sock. I pick out one more with my eyes closed. What is the probability that I will make a pair?

Answer:

No. of socks in the box = 4
Let B and W denote black and white socks respectively.
Then we have:
S = {B,B,W,W}

If a white sock is picked out, then the total no. of socks left in the box = 3
No. of white socks left = 2-1 =1

Probability of getting a white sock

               =Number of white socks left in the boxTotal no. of socks left in the box=13

Question 4:

Two coins are tossed simultaneously 500 times and the outcomes are noted as given below:

Outcome: Two heads
(HH)
One head
(HT or TH)
No head
(TT)
Frequency: 105 275 120
If same pair of coins is tossed at random, find the probability of getting (i) Two heads (ii) One head (iii) No head.

Answer:

Number of trials = 500
Number of outcomes of two heads (HH) =  105
Number of outcomes of one head (HT or TH) =  275
Number of outcomes of no head (TT) =  120

(i) Probability of getting two heads =frequency of getting 2 headsTotal number of trails=105500=21100

(ii) Probability of getting one head =frequency of getting 1 headTotal number of trails=255500=1120

(iii) Probability of getting no head =frequency of getting no headTotal number of trails=120500=625

Question 1:

An unbiased coin is tossed once, the probability of getting head is

(a) 12                                  (b) 1                                         (c) 13                                  (d) 14

Answer:

Tossing a coin, either we get a head (H) or a tail (T). So, the probability of getting a head is 12.
Hence, the correct option is (a).

Question 2:

There are 10 cards numbered from 1 to 10. A card is drawn randomly. The probability of getting
an even numbered card is

(a) 110                                  (b) 15                                         (c) 12                                  (d) 25

Answer:

The number on the cards are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
The even numbers on the cards are 2, 4, 6, 8, 10.
∴ Probability of getting an even numbered card = Number of even numbered cardNumber of cards with numbers from 1 to 10

                                                                             =510=12
Hence, the correct option is (c).

Question 3:

A dice is rolled. The probability of getting an even prime is

(a) 16                                  (b) 13                                         (c) 12                                  (d) 56

Answer:

The possible numbers on a dice are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
There is only one even prime number which is 2.
∴ Probability of getting an even prime = Number of even prime numbersNumber of all possible outcomes on the dice=16

                                                                            
Hence, the correct option is (a).

Question 4:

There are 100 cards numbered from 1 to 100 in a box. If a card is drawn from the box and
the probability of an event is 12, then the number of favourable cases to the event is

(a) 20                                         (b) 25                                          (c) 40                                             (d) 50

Answer:

Here, 50100=12.
So, if the the probability of an event is 12, then the number of favourable cases has to be 50.
Hence, the correct option is (d).

Question 5:

When a dice is thrown, the total number of possible outcomes is

(a) 6                                         (b) 1                                          (c) 3                                             (d) 4

Answer:

The number on the faces of a dice are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.
∴ Number of possible outcomes = 6
Hence, the correct option is (a).

Question 6:

There are 10 marbles in a box which are marked with the distinct numbers from 1 to 10.
A marble is drawn randomly. The probability of getting prime numbered marble is

(a) 12                                         (b) 25                                          (c) 93                                             (d) 310
 

Answer:

The numbers marked on the marbles are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10.
Here, the prime numbers (favourable outcomes) are 2, 3, 5, and 7.
∴ Number of favourable outcomes = 4
Therefore
Probability of getting prime numbered marble = 410=25
Hence, the correct option is (b).

Question 7:

The probability of getting a red card from a well shuffled pack of cards is

(a) 14                                         (b) 12                                      (c) 34                                             (d) 13

Answer:

There are 52 cards in a standard deck. There are four different suits Diamonds (red), Clubs (black)
, Hearts (red), and Spades (black) each containing 13 cards.

∴ Number of red cards (favourable outcomes) = 13 + 13 = 26
Therefore
Probability of getting a red card = 2652=12
Hence, the correct option is (b).

Question 8:

A coin is tossed 100 times and head is obtained 59 times. The probability of getting a tail is

(a) 59100                                         (b) 41100                                      (c) 29100                                             (d) 43100

Answer:

Number of all possible outcomes = 100
Number of head obtained = 59
Number of tail obtained (favourable outcomes) = 100 − 59 = 41

Therefore
Probability of getting a tail = 41100
Hence, the correct option is (b).

Question 9:

A dice is tossed 80 times and number 5 is obtained 14 times. The probability of not getting the number 5 is

(a) 740                                         (b) 780                                      (c) 3340                                             (d) None of these

Answer:

Probability of getting 5 = 1480=740
Therefore
Probability of not getting 5 = 1-740=3340
Hence, the correct option is (c).

Question 10:

A bag contains 4 green balls, 4 red balls and 2 blue balls. If a ball is drawn from the bag, the
probability of getting neither green nor red ball is

(a) 25                                         (b) 12                                      (c) 45                                             (d) 15

Answer:

The probability of getting neither green nor red ball is equal to the probability of getting blue balls.
Number of blue balls = 2
Total number of balls = 4 + 4 + 2 = 10
Therefore
Probability of getting neither green nor red ball = 210=15
Hence, the correct option is (d).
