Question 957048: find a formula for the probability distribution of the random variable x representing the number on a tag drawn at random from a box containing 12 tags 1 to 12. what is probability the number drawn is less than 4?

Each tag has an equal likelihood, P=1%2F12
So for each value of X, the probability is 1%2F12

Since there are 3 values less than 4,
P=3%2F12=1%2F4
