Answer:
To determine the probability that the number on the selected paper will be a prime number, we need to first know how many prime numbers are among the given choices. Then, we can calculate the probability as the number of prime choices divided by the total number of choices.
Let's list the numbers and identify the prime ones:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11
Prime numbers in this list: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11 (There are 5 prime numbers)
Total number of choices: 11
Now, we can calculate the probability:
Probability (prime number) = (Number of prime choices) / (Total number of choices)
Probability (prime number) = 5 / 11
So, the probability that the number on the selected paper will be a prime number is 5/11.
The correct answer is C) 5/11.
