In a cricket match, a bats woman hits a boundary 6 times out of 30 balls she plays. Find the probability that she did not hit a boundary.

Options

A. 0.2
B. 0.4
C. 0.6
D. 0.8

Answer

D

Explanation

Total number of balls played,`N = 30`

Number of times batswoman hit a boundary `= 6`

Number of times batswoman did not hit a boundary `E= 30-6 =24`

So, the probability that the batswoman did not hit a boundary, `P(E) = E/N = 24/30 = 4/5 = 0.8`
