In the following experiment write the sample space A, number of sample point n(S), event A, B, C and n(A), n(B), n(C). A die is thrown. A is the event that prime number comes up, B is the event that the number is divisible by three comes up, C is the event that the perfect square comes up.
Solution:
Since a die is thrown,
Sample Space = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
∴
n(S) = 6
Let A = Event of getting a prime number.
∴
A = {2, 3, 5}
∴ n(A) = 3
Let B =
Event of getting a number divisible by 3
∴
B = {3, 6}
∴ n(B) = 2
Let C = Event of getting a
perfect square comes up
