Detailed Solution

Given a data about the poll of 200 students.
Question ImageWe have to find the probability that a student chosen at random does not like Mathematics.
The probability of an event A is given by,
P(A)= Number of favourable outcomes Total number of outcomes  
Total number of students, n(S)=200  .
Let B   be the event that students do not like mathematics. .
Number of students who do not like mathematics, n(B)=65  .
Then,
The probability that a student does not like Mathematics is given by,
P(B)= n(B) n(S)  
P(B)= 65 200 P(B)= 13 40 P(B)=0.325  
Thus, the probability that students who do not like Mathematics is 0.325  
Hence,  option 3 is the correct option.
