It looks like this is a probability question but you haven't actually asked a question. The probability of WHAT? Your question is missing a key piece of information.

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

i assume p means the probability of guessing the correct number

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

and as there are 10 number p = ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There are 10 possible answers. Normally we would do \[P=\frac{correct}{total}\] but the question doesn't specify any desired outcome. Without that we're all just guessing what the question wants. Probability of guessing correct? Probability of an even number? Probability of a 6? A multiple of 3? Not at 8? The question is incomplete.

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

if my assumption is correct the answer is 1/10
