Solution:
The possible outcomes are {1,2,3,4…15}
Number of possible outcomes = 15
(i) Let E be the event of getting the number on the card is odd.
Outcomes favourable to E are {1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15}
Number of favourable outcomes = 8
P(E) = 8/15
Hence the probability of getting the number on the card is an odd number is 8/15.
(ii) Let E be the event of getting the number on the card is prime.
Outcomes favourable to E are {2,3,5,7,11,13}
Number of favourable outcomes = 6
P(E) = 6/15 = 2/5
Hence the probability of getting the number on the card is an prime number is 2/5.
