Someone is asked to take a number from 1 to 100. The probability that it is a prime, is

Total numbers of outcomes = 100

So, the prime numbers between 1 to 100are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 56, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89 and 97.


Total number of possible outcomes = 25


Required probability = 13/50
