Question

In a single throw of a dice, find the probability of getting a number less than 8.

Answer 1

Sample space = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} 

n(S) = 6 

If we consider to find the probability of number less than 8, then all six cases are favourable

n(E) = 6 

Probability of getting a number less than 8 = P(S)

= `(n(E))/(n(S))`

= `6/6`

= 1
