There are 12 composite (and 8 primes) in the first twenty whole numbers. So the probability of randomly choosing a non-prime is 12/20 or 60%.
The prime numbers from one to nine are 2, 3, 5, and 7. There are nine numbers from one to nine. The probability is 4 (the number of prime numbers) over 9 (the total number of numbers). Therefore, the probability of choosing a prime number is 4/9 or about 44 percent.
Whole numbers are positive numbers and there are no fractions or decimals.
The product of all those numbers will always be a negative number.
Yes, EXCEPT for the number 0. It is a whole number but is not positive or negative. Real Numbers - Everything I. Rational Numbers- Any number except for non terminating decimals A. Integers- Any negative or positive number...not a decimal1. Whole Numbers- Any positive integer INCLUDING ZEROa. Natural Numbers- Any positive integer (NOT INCLUDING ZERO) The answer is not entirely correct, Whole numbers are numbers without a fractional part or decimal point. Therefore whole numbers can be negative as well as positive. -2 is a whole number but is not positive. There are a number of different interpretations for whole numbers, from non-negative integers, positive integers and all integers (which includes negative integers)
no negative numbers are always smaller than positive numbers..... you can draw out a numberline and see any number to the left of the number zero is negative and to the right is positive
3 out of 4
1 out of 20 this is because there are 20 numbers in total, and there is only one 7 in there. (Assuming that there is the same probability for each number to be chosen, and that 17 is excluded as an affirmative outcome)
50%
1/3
There are 8 out of 20 numbers that are prime, so 8/20, or 2/5.
There are 20 numbers in total from 1 to 20. The even numbers in this range are 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, and 20, totaling 10 even numbers. Therefore, the probability of picking an even number is the number of even numbers divided by the total numbers, which is ( \frac{10}{20} = \frac{1}{2} ). Thus, the probability of selecting an even number is 0.5 or 50%.
the first 10 whole numbers are numbers 1 to 10 and in those numbers only 3 numbers are divisible by 3 in which 3, 6 and 9 therefore the probability of from those figures that the numbers won't be divisible by 3 is 7/10 or 70%.
50 50 odd or even same probability
The probability is(the total number of numbers on the spinner minus 5)/(the total number of numbers on the spinner)Another way to express the same probability is1 - 5/(the total number of numbers on the spinner)
Positive numbers always result in positive numbers when added, divided, or multiplied by another positive number.
The probability is 1/b.
The probability is 0.
