उत्तर

`bb(15/10)` or 1.5

Explanation:

The probability of any event is Probability = `"Favorable outcomes"/"Total outcomes"`

We know that

0 < Favourable outcomes > Total outcomes

0 < `"Favorable outcomes"/"Total outcomes"` < 1

0 < Probability < 1

It means the probability of any event lies between 0 to 1.

Since 1.5 > 1, therefore cannot represent a probability.
