The probability that a number selected at random from S above will also be in set T is 0.2

What is the probability that a number selected in S is in T

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

S = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10}

T = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

From the above, we have

Total = 10

Common elements = 2

This implies that

There are a total of 10 numbers.

The common number among S and T are 2 and 4 only

So, we have

Probability = 2/10

Probability = 0.2

hence, the probability that a number selected in S is in T is 0.2

Question

S = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10

T = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

What is the probability that a number selected at random from set S above will also be in set T?
