= 10 + 15 + 23
= 48
Number of bulbs having lifetime less than 900 hours = 48
And, total number of outcome = 80
Now, the probability that the bulb chosen has lifetime less than 900 hours is,
= Number of bulbs having lifetime less than 900 hours Total number of outcomes = 48 80
= 3 5
The probability is 3 5 .
