Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -We have to determine the probability of picking a number less than 15 for the jar. Ensure since these papers are labeled 1-12, therefore you will always select a number less than 15. Thus, The required probability is 1 that picking a number less than 15 for the jar.
Detailed explanation-2: -From the given 15 numbers, the numbers that are multiple of 4 are 4, 8 and 12. Therefore, Probability that a number selected is a multiple of 4 =315=15.
Detailed explanation-3: -Probability of getting a number less than 11 is: P (x<11) = 12/51.
Detailed explanation-4: -The probability of a person picking any number at random is 1/100. Now, the question is what is the probability that both persons pick the same number.
