Question

Numbers $1$ to $10$ are written on ten separate slips(one number on one slip), kept in a box and mixed well. One slip is chosen from the box without looking into it. The probability of getting a number $6$ is $\frac{1}{m}$, then the value of $m$ is:

Answer 1

Out of $10$ slips, $1$ slip can be drawn in $10$ ways.

So, the total number of outcomes $=10$
An event of getting a number $6$, i.e., if we obtain a slip having number 6 as an outcome.
So favourable number of outcomes $=1$
Thus, the required probability $=\frac{1}{10}$
