Answer 1

Probability of getting a number which is not 2 = 7/8

Explanation:

Given;

Total number of faces = 8

Number of face with 2 = 1

Number of face with 3 = 2

Number of face with 4 = 1

Number of face with 7 = 3

Number of face with 9 = 1

Find:

Probability of getting a number which is not 2

Computation:

Probability of not an event = 1 - [Number of favourable outcomes / Total number of outcomes]

Probability of getting a number which is not 2 = 1 - [1/8]

Probability of getting a number which is not 2 = [8-1] / 8

Probability of getting a number which is not 2 = 7/8
