If a number is chosen at random from the set $\{1,2,3, \ldots \ldots, 100\}$, then the probability that the chosen number is a perfect cube is
  1. $1 / 25$
  2. $1 / 2$
  3. $1 / 10$
  4. 9/13

Solution

$\begin{aligned} & n(S)=100 \\ & E=\{1,8 ; 27,64\} \\ & n(E)=4\end{aligned}$ $\therefore$ Required probability $=p(E)=\frac{n(E)}{n(S)}=\frac{4}{100}=\frac{1}{25}$
