Find the probability that a number picked at random from the set(43, 44, 45, …, 60) is a prime number.
- \(\frac{2}{3}\)
- \(\frac{1}{3}\)
-
\(\frac{2}{9}\)
- \(\frac{7}{9}\)
The correct answer is: C
Explanation
Prime numbers = (43,47,53,59)N = (43, 44, 45,..., 60)
The universal set contains 18 numbers.
The prime numbers between 43 and 60 are 4
Probability of picking a prime number = \(\frac{4}{18}\)
= \(\frac{2}{9}\)
