MCQ
Which of the following cannot be the probability of an event?
- A$\frac{2}{3}$
- ✓$-1.5$
- C$15\%$
- D$0.7$
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
$-1.5$
Given : $4$ options of probability of some events
To Find : Which of the given options cannot be the probability of an event?
We know that $0\leq\text{p}\leq1$.
As the probability of an event cannot be negative
In option $ (b) \ P = -1.5$
Hence the correct answer is option $b.$
