Question

    Which of the following cannot be the probability of an event?

    A 2/3 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B -1.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 15% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 0.7 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    We know that the probability of an event E lies in between 0 and 1, that is, 0 ≤ P(E) ≤ 1 and it cannot be less than 0 and greater than 1. So, option (B) - 1.5 cannot be the probability of an event because it is negative.
