Practicing Success
A sum of money is rounded off to the nearest rupee. The probability that round off error is at least ten paise is |
$\frac{81}{100}$ $\frac{82}{101}$ $\frac{19}{100}$ $\frac{19}{101}$ |
$\frac{81}{100}$ |
Let the sum of money be x ₹ and y paise. Then , y can take the following values. 01, 02, ............., 99 Therefore, round off error inpaise can be 00, ± 01, ± 02, ......, ±49, 50 The round off error will be at least ten paise if it is ±10, ± 11, ± 12, ......, ±49, 50 Hence, required probability $=\frac{81}{100}$ |
