Balls numbered from 1 to 52 are placed in a jar and mixed. If one is drawn at random, find the probability of each result.
HENCE TOTAL POSSIBILITIES = 52
A. The number is less than 15.....THERE ARE 14 SUCH BALLS ..HENCE P=14/52=7/26
B. The number is greater than or equal to 20. ...THERE ARE 33 SUCH BALLS...HENCE P=33/52
C. The number is a 10 or a 20.....THERE ARE 2 SUCH BALLS....HENCE P=2/52=1/26
D. The number is less than 11 or greater than 48...THERE ARE 10+4=14 SUCH BALLS...HENCE P=14/52=7/26
