Question

Tom has 12 cards with the numbers 1 to 12 on them.
He selects one card at random.

Find P(5).

Answer 1

Answer:

5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Total no of cards = 12 with numbers 1 to 12

We need to find the probability of getting 5.

Probability = favourable outcomes/total no of outcomes

Favourable outcomes is 5 as it come one time

Total no of outcome = 12 (total no of cards)

So,

$P(5)=\dfrac{5}{12}$

Hence, the probability of getting 5 is 5/12.
