Solution

To calculate the probability of getting a number greater than 10 from the sample space, you need to follow these steps:

  1. Identify the total number of outcomes in the sample space. In this case, the sample space is {5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14}, so there are 10 possible outcomes.

  2. Identify the number of outcomes that satisfy the condition "greater than 10". In this case, the numbers greater than 10 are {11, 12, 13, 14}, so there are 4 such outcomes.

  3. The probability of an event is calculated as the number of favorable outcomes divided by the total number of outcomes. So, the probability of getting a number greater than 10 is 4 (favorable outcomes) divided by 10 (total outcomes).

  4. Therefore, P(greater than 10) = 4/10 = 0.4 or 40%.
