1. A bag contains 9 black and 12 white balls. One ball is drawn at random. What is the probability that the
ball drawn is black?
2. Find the probability that a number selected from the numbers 1 to 25 which is not a prime number
when each of the given number is equally likely to be selected.
3. A bag contains 10 red, 5 blue and 7 green balls. A ball is drawn at random. Find the probability of this
ball being not a blue ball.
4. Two dice are thrown at the same time and the product of numbers appearing on them is noted. Find
the probability that the product is less than 9.
5. Cards, marked with numbers 5 to 50, are placed in a box and mixed thoroughly. A card is drawn from
the box at random. Find the probability that the number on the taken-out card is:
(i) a prime number less than 10.
(ii) a number which is a perfect square.
6. Two dice are thrown simultaneously. What is the probability that:
(i) 5 will not come up on either of them?

9. Cards numbered 1 to 30 are put in a bag. A card is drawn at random from this bag. Find the probability
that the number on the drawn card is:
(i) not divisible by 3. (ii) a prime number greater than 7.
(iii) not a perfect square number.
