Answer ( 1 )
Answer: (a) 1/7
Explanation:
Non-leap year = 365 days
365 days = 52 weeks + 1 day
For 52 weeks, number of Sundays
= 52
1 remaining day can be Sunday,
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday, Friday, Saturday,
Sunday.
Total possible outcomes = 7
The number of favourable
outcomes = 1
Thus, the probability of getting 53
Sundays = 1/7
