Question
Among the following that cannot be a probability is
- 10%
- 10
Hint:
The likelihood of an event happening or not in numeric terms is called probability. Probability is always denoted by a number between 0 and 1, 0 representing impossibility of the event happening and 1 representing certainty.
The correct answer is: 10
TO FIND-
Which of the given options can not be used to denote probability.
SOLUTION-
a. 10%
10% = 10/100 = 0.1
b. 10
c. 10 to the power of negative 10 end exponent
10-10 = 1/1010 = 0.0000000001
d. 1 over 10
1/10 = 0.1
Since we know that probability is always a number between 0 and 1, the only option that does not satisfy this condition is option b i.e. 10 because it is greater than 1.
FINAL ANSWER-
Option 'b' i.e. '10' is the correct answer to the given question.
