  1. Q1. Two dice are thrown simultaneously. What is the probability that the product of the two numbers is a prime?

    • A.1/6
    • B.1/12
    • C.1/9
    • D.1/4

    Answer: A. 1/6

    NCERT fact (math, chapter 'Probability'): Product is prime ⇒ one die shows 1, other shows 2, 3 or 5. Ordered pairs: (1,2),(1,3),(1,5),(2,1),(3,1),(5,1) = 6. P = 6/36 = 1/6. Final answer - A) 1/6.

  2. Q2. An integer is chosen between 100 and 999 (both inclusive). What is the probability that it is divisible by both 4 and 5?

    • A.1/20
    • B.9/200
    • C.3/100
    • D.1/50

    Answer: A. 1/20

    Given 100, 999, 4, 5, asked for What is the probability that it is divisible by both 4 and 5?. By Divisible by LCM(4,5) = 20 between 100 and 980: count = (980 − 100)/20 + 1 = 45. Divisible by LCM(4,5) = 20 between 100 and 980: count = (980 − 100)/20 + 1 = 45 → Total integers = 900 → P = 45/900 = 1/20. Thus option A) 1/20.

  3. Q3. If P(E) = 0.05, what is the probability of 'not E'?

    • A.0.95
    • B.0.05
    • C.0.5
    • D.0.045

    Answer: A. 0.95
