Solution
A number is selected from 1 to 25
TO FIND: Probability that, the number is a prime
Total number is 25
Numbers from 1 to 25 that are primes are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19 and 23
Total numbers that are primes from 1 to 25 is 9
`"We know that PROBABILITY" = "Number of favourable event"/"Total number of event"`
Hence probability of getting a prime number from 1 to 25 is equal to `9/25`
