so probability of getting even number is 10/20
and probability of getting odd number is 8/20
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sorry prime not odd
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yupp
OpenStudy (anonymous):
umm then u can either have even number or prime number
so total probability is= p(even number)=p(prime number)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
which is 8/20+10/20
=0.90 is the answer
