Question

A digital clock displays military time in hh:mm format. Find the probability that the number made up of the first two digits on the clock is greater than 24 .

Answer 1

Answer: zero

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, in the military clock 24 is the greatest number which has been made  up of the first two digits on the clock.

So, there is no number greater than 24  which has been made up of the first two digits on the clock.

The total number made up of the first two digits on the clock.=24

Therefore, the probability that the number made up of the first two digits on the clock is greater than 24 =$\frac{\text{number greater than 24}}{\text{total numbers }}=\frac{0}{24}=0$

Hence,  probability that the number made up of the first two digits on the clock is greater than 24  is zero.
