The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the two statements regarding the probability of drawing a card from a box containing cards marked with consecutive odd numbers from 1 to 200. ### Step 1: Determine the Sample Space The odd numbers from 1 to 200 are: 1, 3, 5, ..., 199. To find the total number of odd numbers, we can use the formula for the nth term of an arithmetic progression (AP): \[ a_n = a + (n-1)d \] where: - \( a \) = first term = 1 - \( d \) = common difference = 2 - \( a_n \) = last term = 199 Setting up the equation: \[ 199 = 1 + (n-1) \cdot 2 \] \[ 199 - 1 = (n-1) \cdot 2 \] \[ 198 = (n-1) \cdot 2 \] \[ n - 1 = \frac{198}{2} = 99 \] \[ n = 100 \] So, the total number of cards (sample space) is **100**. ### Step 2: Analyze Statement 1 **Statement 1:** The probability that the drawn card is a multiple of 3 is \( \frac{1}{3} \). To find the favorable cases (multiples of 3 among the odd numbers): The multiples of 3 in the odd numbers from 1 to 199 are: 3, 9, 15, ..., 195. This is also an AP where: - First term \( a = 3 \) - Common difference \( d = 6 \) (since we are considering odd multiples of 3) - Last term \( a_n = 195 \) Setting up the equation: \[ 195 = 3 + (n-1) \cdot 6 \] \[ 195 - 3 = (n-1) \cdot 6 \] \[ 192 = (n-1) \cdot 6 \] \[ n - 1 = \frac{192}{6} = 32 \] \[ n = 33 \] So, the number of favorable cases (multiples of 3) is **33**. Now, we calculate the probability: \[ P(\text{multiple of 3}) = \frac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text{Total cases}} = \frac{33}{100} \] Since \( \frac{33}{100} \neq \frac{1}{3} \), **Statement 1 is false**. ### Step 3: Analyze Statement 2 **Statement 2:** The probability that the drawn card is a perfect square and a multiple of 9 is \( \frac{2}{3} \). The perfect squares that are also multiples of 9 among the odd numbers are: - \( 3^2 = 9 \) - \( 6^2 = 36 \) - \( 9^2 = 81 \) - \( 12^2 = 144 \) These values are: 9, 36, 81, 144 (all are less than 200). Counting these, we find there are **4 favorable cases**. Now, we calculate the probability: \[ P(\text{perfect square and multiple of 9}) = \frac{4}{100} = \frac{1}{25} \] Since \( \frac{1}{25} \neq \frac{2}{3} \), **Statement 2 is also false**. ### Conclusion Both statements are false. ### Final Answer The correct option is: **Both statement 1 and statement 2 are false.** ---
