Question
The probability of selecting a rotten egg randomly from
a basket of 350 eggs is 0.18. What is the number of rotten eggs in the basket?Solution
Total number of eggs in the basketĀ = n(S) = 350 Let E be the event of selecting a rotten egg from the basket. Number of outcomes favourable to E = n(E) P(E) = n(E)/n(S) 0.18 = n(E)/350 ā n(E) = 350 Ć 0.18 ā n(E) = 63 Therefore, the number of rotten eggs in the basketĀ = 63
