Question

A group of students ordered collectively 6 pizzas and 10 burgers for lunch.If one item is picked randomly, then it is to pick a veg burger.
\begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|} \hline & Pizza & Burger \\ \hline Veg & 5 & \\ \hline Non-Veg & \( - \) & 4 \\ \hline Total & 6 & 10 \\ \hline \end{tabular}

• A. impossible
• B. certain
• C. likely
• D. unlikely

Answer 1

The correct option is D unlikely

Given that, total pizzas ordered were 6, out of which 5 are veg. pizzas.
So, number of non-veg pizzas ordered is:
= 6-5
= 1

Total number of burgers ordered = 10
Number of non-veg burgers = 4
Hence, number of veg burgers = 10 - 4
= 6
Representing this data on table, we get:
There are 6 veg bugers, which is less than half of number of pizzas and bugers ordered.
So, it is unlikely to pick a veg burger.
