Math Problem Statement

This is a math-based problem set containing 8 multiple-choice questions related to probability, combinatorics, and relative frequency, aimed at high school students.

Solution

Let's solve the questions one by one.

Question 1

Agung rolls a die 1,200 times, and the frequency of each outcome is recorded in the table:

  • Frequency for each side:
    • 1: 180
    • 2: 240
    • 3: 195
    • 4: 195
    • 5: 180
    • 6: 210

The relative frequency of getting a 1 is calculated as: Relative Frequency=Frequency of 1Total Rolls=1801200=320\text{Relative Frequency} = \frac{\text{Frequency of 1}}{\text{Total Rolls}} = \frac{180}{1200} = \frac{3}{20}

So, the answer is B. 320\frac{3}{20}.

Question 2

There are 10 pieces of paper numbered 1 to 10. If 2 are drawn randomly and their numbers are added, the probability of getting an odd sum is calculated as:

  • Total ways to choose 2 pieces: (102)=45\binom{10}{2} = 45.
  • Ways to get an odd sum:
    • Choose 1 even number and 1 odd number.
    • There are 5 odd numbers and 5 even numbers.
    • Combinations: 5×5=255 \times 5 = 25.

Probability: 2545=59\frac{25}{45} = \frac{5}{9}

So, the answer is E. 59\frac{5}{9}.

Question 3

Pak Karno has a box with 60 fruits: 8 pears, 12 avocados, and the rest are guavas. The probability of drawing a guava:

  • Number of guavas: 60812=4060 - 8 - 12 = 40.
  • Probability: 4060=23\frac{40}{60} = \frac{2}{3}

So, the answer is C. 23\frac{2}{3}.

Question 4

The diagram shows a spinner divided into 8 equal parts, numbered 1 to 8. The probability of the arrow pointing to a number greater than 5 (i.e., 6, 7, or 8):

  • There are 3 favorable outcomes.
  • Probability: 38\frac{3}{8}

So, the answer is C. 38\frac{3}{8}.

Question 5

The word "KALIMANTAN" has 10 letters, and the frequency of the letter "A" is 3. The probability of choosing an "A":

310\frac{3}{10}

So, the answer is C. 310\frac{3}{10}.

Let me know if you'd like to delve into any question further. Here are five related questions to expand on this:

  1. What is the expected value of rolling a weighted die given different probabilities?
  2. How do you find the probability of getting a sum divisible by 3 when drawing two cards numbered 1 to 10?
  3. If Pak Karno adds 10 more guavas to his collection, what is the new probability of selecting a guava?
  4. What is the probability of landing on an odd number on the given spinner?
  5. How would the probability change if the word was "MALAYSIA" instead of "KALIMANTAN"?

Tip: For probability questions involving "at least one" events, it is often easier to calculate the complement probability (i.e., "none") first and then subtract from 1.
