On a particular day, at a crossing in a city, the various types of 24 vehicles going past during a time interval were observed under:
| Types of vehicle | Frequency |
|---|---|
| Two-wheelers | 84 |

On one page of a telephone directory, there are 200 phone numbers. The frequency distribution of their unit’s digits is given below:
| Unit’s digit | Frequency |
|---|---|
| 0 | 19 |

An organisation selected 2400 families at random and surveyed them to determine a relationship between the income level and the number of vehicles in a family. The information gathered is listed in the table below:
| Monthly income (in ₹) | Number of vehicles per family | – | – | – |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| – | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 or more |
| Less than ₹ 25000 | 10 | 160 | 25 | 0 |
| ₹ 25000 – ₹ 30000 | 0 | 305 | 27 | 2 |
| ₹ 30000 – ₹ 35000 | 1 | 535 | 29 | 1 |
| ₹ 35000 – ₹ 40000 | 2 | 469 | 59 | 25 |
| ₹ 40000 or more | 1 | 579 | 82 | 88 |
Suppose a family is chosen at random. Find the probability that the family chosen is
(i) earning ₹ 25000 – ₹ 30000 per month and owing exactly 2 vehicles.
(ii) earning ₹ 40000 or more per month and owing exactly 1 vehicle.
(iii) earning less than ₹ 25000 per month and not owing any vehicle.
(iv) earning ₹ 35000 – ₹ 40000 per month and owing 2 or more vehicles.
(v) owing not more than 1 vehicle.
The table given below shows the ages of 75 teachers in a school.
| Age (in years) | Number of teachers |
|---|---|
| 18 – 29 | 3 |
| 30 – 39 | 27 |
| 40 – 49 | 37 |
| 50 – 59 | 8 |
A teacher from this school is chosen at random. What is the probability that the selected teacher is
(i) 40 or more than 40 years old?
(ii) of any age lying between 30-39 years (including both)?
(iii) 18 years or more and 49 years or less?
(iv) 18 years or more old?
(v) above 60 years of age?
Following are the ages (in years) of 360 patients, getting medical treatment in a hospital:
| Age (in years) | Number of patients |
|---|---|
| 10-20 | 90 |
| 20-30 | 50 |
| 30-40 | 60 |
| 40-50 | 80 |
| 50-60 | 50 |
| 60-70 | 30 |
On of the patients is selected at random.
What is the probability that his age is
(i) 30 years or more but less than 40 years?
(ii) 50 years or more but less than 70 years?
(iii) 10 years or more but less than 40 years?
(iv) 10 years or more?
(v) less than 10 years?
The marks obtained by 90 students of a school in mathematics out of 100 are given as under:
| Marks | Number of patients |
|---|---|
| 0-20 | 7 |

| 30-40 | 12 |
| 40-50 | 25 |
| 50-60 | 19 |
| 60-70 | 10 |
| 70 and above | 9 |
