The numbers 1 through 15 were each written onindividual pieces of paper, 1 number per piece. Thenthe 15 pieces of paper were put in a jar. One piece ofpaper will be drawn from the jar at random. What isthe probability of drawing a piece of paper with anumber less than 9 written on it?

Respuesta :

Take into account that the probability for a specific event is given by the quotient, between the number of options for the specific event, over the total number of events.

In this, case, the number of options for the specific event is 8 (because we are interested in numbers greater than 9). The total number of elements is 15.

Then, the probability is:

[tex]P_{}=\frac{8}{15}[/tex]
