    Study Case : Q. 11 to 15
    Shivam sees a game in a fair. He is keenly interested to play it. He asks the rules of game from the owner. Owner says that you will move this spinner first, if it stops on a prime number, then you are allowed to pick a marble from a bag and bag has only white and black marbles. Prizes are given when a white marble is picked randomly.
    Based on the above information, answer the following questions:
    What is the probability that Shivam will not be allowed to pick a marble from the bag?

    A) \[\frac{3}{8}\]

    B) \[\frac{5}{8}\]

    C) \[\frac{1}{2}\]

    D) 1

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Total numbers on the spinner = 8
    Non-prime numbers are 4, 8.10 i.e., 3
    So, P(non-prime number) \[=\frac{3}{8}\]
    So, option [a] is correct
