Question
Suppose an integer from 1 through 1000 is chosen at random, find the probability that the integer is a multiple of 2 or a multiple of 9.

Answer

Number of multiples of 2 in 1 to 1000 are 500
Number of multiples of 9 in 1 to 1000 are 111
Out of 111, 55 are even numbers. So total favorables number are
500 + 56 = 556
Probability that integer is a multiple of 2 or a multiple of 9
$=\frac{556}{1000}=0.556$

One of the four persons John, Rita, Aslam or Gurpreet will be promoted next month. Consequently the sample space consists of four elementary outcomes $S = \{$John promoted, Rita promoted, Aslam promoted, Gurpreet promoted$\}$ You are told that the chances of John’s promotion is same as that of Gurpreet, Rita’s chances of promotion are twice as likely as Johns. Aslam’s chances are four times that of John:
