Answer:
OPTION D: 1/10
Step-by-step explanation:
Five slips of paper labeled 1 to 5.
After the first slip is drawn, it is not replaced. So, the second draw is dependent on the first draw.
First Draw: Drawing a number less than 3.
{1, 2} are the possibilities.
Therefore, drawing {1, 2} from 5 slips = [tex]$ \frac{2}{5} $[/tex].
Second Draw: Drawing a number more than 4.
There is only {5} which is greater than 4.
Therefore, drawing 5 from the remaining 4 slips = [tex]$ \frac{1}{4} $[/tex].
Since, both the events happen, the probability is:
[tex]$ \frac{2}{5} \times \frac{1}{4} $[/tex]
= [tex]$ \frac{1}{10} $[/tex] is the answer.
