Statistics And Probability

Step 1: List all possible outcomes. The total number of cards is

10

, numbered as

%5C%7B1%2C%202%2C%203%2C%204%2C%205%2C%206%2C%207%2C%208%2C%209%2C%2010%5C%7D

. Step 2: Identify favorable outcomes. The event involves drawing a card that is: An even number:

%5C%7B2%2C%204%2C%206%2C%208%2C%2010%5C%7D

A multiple of 5:

%5C%7B5%2C%2010%5C%7D

The union of these two sets is

%5C%7B2%2C%204%2C%205%2C%206%2C%208%2C%2010%5C%7D

, as

10

is common to both sets. Step 3: Count the favorable outcomes. The number of favorable outcomes is:

%7C%5Ctext%7BFavorable%20outcomes%7D%7C%20%3D%206

Step 4: Calculate the probability. The probability is given by:

P(%5Ctext%7BFavorable%20outcome%7D)%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B%5Ctext%7BNumber%20of%20favorable%20outcomes%7D%7D%7B%5Ctext%7BTotal%20outcomes%7D%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B6%7D%7B10%7D
