Answer:

0 is the probability that Tim will select a card labeled with a number 6.

Explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Number of cards = 4

Cards with labels:

1,3,5,7

Tim will select one card from the box. We have to find the probability that Tim will select a card labeled with a number 6.

Formula:


\text{Probability} = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Number of favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}


\text{P(Label 6) = }(0)/(4)= 0

0 is the probability that Tim will select a card labeled with a number 6. Thus, it is an impossible event.
