In a one day cricket match, a batsman hits the boundary 8 times out of 48 balls he plays. Find the probability that he does not hit the boundary.

Total number balls batsman played = 48


Number of batsman hits a boundary = 8


Number of batsman doesn’t hit a boundary = 48 – 8 = 40


Probability P() =


Probability of batsman not hitting a boundary is


P(no boundary) =
