The probability that a non-leap year contains 53 Sunday is
Options
- A1 7
- B1 9
- C2 7
- D1 5
Correct answer
A. 1 7
Step-by-step solution
A non-leap year contains 365 days and there are total 52 weeks and 1 day in a non-leap year. Hence there should be 52 Sunday also. But the 1 extra day apart from those 52 weeks may be either Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday or a Sunday. Clearly, total possible events are =7 and Number of favourable events =1 Hence probability = 1 7
