We have 20 cards numbered from 1 to 20, one card is drawn at random $\therefore\text{n(S)}=\ ^{20}\text{C}_1=20$ - Let E be the event that the number on the drawn cards is multiple of 4
$\therefore\text{E}=\big\{4, \ 8, \ 12,\ 16,\ 20\big\}$
$\therefore\text{n(E)}=5$
$\therefore\text{p(E)}=\frac{5}{20}=\frac{1}{4}$
- Let E be the event that the number on the drawn cards is not multiple of 4
$\therefore\ \stackrel{{\sim}}{\hbox{E}}$ be the event that the number on the drawn cards is not multiple of 4
$\therefore\ \stackrel{{\sim}}{\hbox{E}}\ =\big\{4,\ 8, \ 12, \ 16,\ 20\big\}$
$\Rightarrow\text{n}\stackrel{{\sim}}{\hbox{(E)}}=5$
$\therefore\text{P}\stackrel{{\sim}}{\hbox{(E)}}=\frac{5}{20}=\frac{1}{4}$
$\therefore\text{P(E)}=1-\text{P}(\stackrel{{\sim}}{\hbox{E)}}$
$=1-\frac{1}{4}=\frac{3}{4}$
- Let E be the event that the number on the drawn cards is odd.
$\therefore\text{E}=\big\{1, \ 3,\ 5,\ 7,\ 13,\ 15,\ 17,\ 19\big\}$
$\therefore\text{n(E)}=10$
$\Rightarrow\text{P(E)}=\frac{10}{20}=\frac{1}{2}$
- Let E be the event that the number on the drawn cards is greater than 12.
$\therefore\text{E}=\big\{13, \ 14,\ 15,\ 16,\ 17,\ 18,\ 19,\ 20\big\}$
$\therefore\text{n(E)}=8$
$\Rightarrow\text{P(E)}=\frac{8}{20}=\frac{2}{5}$
- Let E be the event that the number on the drawn cards is divisible by 5.
$\therefore\text{E}=\big\{5, \ 10,\ 15,\ 20\big\}$
$\text{n(E)}=4$
$\therefore\text{P(E)}=\frac{4}{20}=\frac{1}{5}$
- Let E be the event that the number on the drawn cards is divisible by 6.
$\therefore\ \stackrel{{\sim}}{\hbox{E}}$ be the event that the number on the drawn cards is not divisible of 6
$\Rightarrow\text{n}\stackrel{{\sim}}{\hbox{(E)}}=3$
$\therefore\text{P}\stackrel{{\sim}}{\hbox{(E)}}=\frac{3}{20}$
$\text{P(E)}=1-\text{P}(\stackrel{{\sim}}{\hbox{E)}}$
$=1-\frac{3}{20}=\frac{17}{20}$
