  1. Given

    Given Rusted screw =(1/10) of 600

    Given Rusted screw =(1/10) of 600=(1/10)×600

    Given Rusted screw =(1/10) of 600=(1/10)×600=60 seconds

    Given Rusted screw =(1/10) of 600=(1/10)×600=60 secondsProbability of rusted screw=60/600=1/10

    Given Rusted screw =(1/10) of 600=(1/10)×600=60 secondsProbability of rusted screw=60/600=1/10Probability ( of not rusted screw)=1− Probability ( of rusted screw)

    Given Rusted screw =(1/10) of 600=(1/10)×600=60 secondsProbability of rusted screw=60/600=1/10Probability ( of not rusted screw)=1− Probability ( of rusted screw)=1−1/10

    Given Rusted screw =(1/10) of 600=(1/10)×600=60 secondsProbability of rusted screw=60/600=1/10Probability ( of not rusted screw)=1− Probability ( of rusted screw)=1−1/10=(10−1)/10

    Given Rusted screw =(1/10) of 600=(1/10)×600=60 secondsProbability of rusted screw=60/600=1/10Probability ( of not rusted screw)=1− Probability ( of rusted screw)=1−1/10=(10−1)/10=9/10

    I HOPE THIS HELPS

  2. Total screws in the box = 600

    One tenth of 600 = 60

    P(getting a good screw) = One tenth of 600 / Total screws in the box = 60/600 = 1/10

    The probability of getting a good screw is 1/10 or 0.1 .
