Consider the frequency distribution table which gives the weights of $38$ students of a class.
Weights (in $kg$) Number of students
$31-35$ $9$
$36-40$ $5$
$41-45$ $14$
$46-50$ $3$
$51-55$ $1$
$56-60$ $2$
$61-65$ $2$
$66-70$ $1$
$71-75$ $1$
Total $38$

$(i)$ Find the probability that the weight of a student in the class lies in the interval $46-50 \, kg$.
$(ii)$ Give two events in this context,one having probability $0$ and the other having probability $1$.

  • A
    $0.079, 0$ and $1$
  • B
    $1.079, 2$ and $3$
  • C
    $0.279, 3$ and $4$
  • D
    $6.079, 8$ and $9$
