A selection committee interviewed 50 people for the post of sales manager.
Out of which 35 are males and 15 are females.
What is the probability of a female candidate being selected.

Answer :

We know formula for probability :

Probability P ( E )  = Total number of desired events n ( E )Total number of events n ( S )

Here , total people  =  50 , So

n ( S ) =  50

And

Number of female candidate  =  15 , So

n ( E ) =  15 

Therefore ,

Probability of a female candidate being selected = 1550 = 310                                             ( Ans )
