Find the

(a) Probability of the pointer stopping on D in (figure 1)

(b) Probability of getting an ace from a well shuffled deck of 52 playing cards.

(c) Probability of getting a red apple.

Answer:

(a) Total outcomes of a spinning a wheel = 5 but a pointer stopping on D

Then, the probability =\[\frac{1}{5}\]

(b) There are 4 ace out of 52 cards.

Probability of getting ace \[=\frac{4}{52}=\frac{1}{13}\]

(c) Total number of apples = 7

Number of red apples = 4

Probability of getting a red apple

\[=\frac{No.\text{ }of\text{ }red\text{ }apples}{Total\text{ }No.\text{ }of\text{ }apples}=\frac{4}{7}\]
