Answer:
10% probability that the number is greater than 2, then P
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.
In this question:
Event A: Number greater than 2.
Event B: Letter P.
These events are independent, so:
[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(A) \times P(B)[/tex]
P(A)
There are 5 numbers.
3, 4 or 5, that is, 3 numbers greater than 2.
3/5 = 0.6. So P(A) = 0.6.
P(B)
6 letters, one of which is P. So
P(B) = 1/6 = 0.1667.
What is the probability the number is greater than 2, then P?
[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(A) \times P(B) = 0.6 \times 0.1667 = 0.1[/tex]
10% probability that the number is greater than 2, then P
