Which of the following cannot be the probability of an event?
(A) 2 / 3
(B) 15%
(C) 3 / 2
(D) 0.7
Which of the following cannot be the probability of an event?
(A) 2 / 3
(B) 15%
(C) 3 / 2
(D) 0.7
Which of the following cannot be the probability of an event?
A \(\frac{2}3\)
B -1.5
C 15%
D 0.7
Which of the following cannot be the probability of an event?
A \(\frac{2}3\)
B -1.5
C 15%
D 0.7
Probability of an event cannot be negative or more than one so -1.5 can never be probability of any event
b) -1.5
Correct Answer – D
Since, probability of an event always lies between 0 and 1
Which of the following cannot be the probability of an event?
(i) 2/3 (ii) -1.5 (iii) 15% (iv) 0.7
Which of the following cannot be the probability of an event?
(i) 2/3 (ii) -1.5 (iii) 15% (iv) 0.7
We know that probability of any event varies between 0 to 1 and cannot be negative. Since 15% = 15/100 =0 .15
Therefore, only option is (ii)
Which of the following cannot be the probability of an event ?
A) 0.2
B) 2/5
C) 0.72
D) \(1.\overline{3}\)
Which of the following cannot be the probability of an event ?
A) 0.2
B) 2/5
C) 0.72
D) \(1.\overline{3}\)
Correct option is: D) \(1.\overline 3 \)
Probability of any event always lie between 0 and 1.
\(\because\) \(1.\overline 3 > 1\)
\(\therefore\) \(1.\overline 3 \) can not be the probability of any event.
Correct option is: D) \(1.\overline{3}\)
Which of the following cannot be the probability of an event?
(A)1/3 (B) 0.1 (C) 3% (D)17/16
Which of the following cannot be the probability of an event?
(A)1/3 (B) 0.1 (C) 3% (D)17/16
(D)17/16
Explanation:
Probability of an event always lies between 0 and 1.
Probability of any event cannot be more than 1 or negative as (17/16) > 1
Hence, option (D) is correct
Which of the following cannot be the probability of an event ?
(A) \(\frac{2}{3}\)
(B) -1.5
(C) 15%
(D) 0.7.
Which of the following cannot be the probability of an event ?
(A) \(\frac{2}{3}\)
(B) -1.5
(C) 15%
(D) 0.7.
Answer is (B)
This cannot be the probability of an event because possibility of event should not be less than 0 and more than 1. Hence -1.5 is lesser than 0.
Correct Answer – D
Which of the following cannot be the probability of an event?
A. \(\frac{1}{3}\)
B. \(\frac{3}{5}\)
C. \(\frac{5}{3}\)
D. 1
Which of the following cannot be the probability of an event?
A. \(\frac{1}{3}\)
B. \(\frac{3}{5}\)
C. \(\frac{5}{3}\)
D. 1
The most the probability of an event occurring can be is 1which means the event has a 100% probability of happening. But 5/3 is greater than 1 so it can’t be the probability of an event.
Correct option is (C) 3 / 2
