Probability Faulty
1. **State the problem:**
We have two boxes with items, some faulty and some not. We want to find probabilities related to selecting faulty or non-faulty items.
2. **Recall the probability formula:**
$$\text{Probability} = \frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}$$
3. **First box:**
- Total items = 200
- Faulty items = 25
- Non-faulty items = 200 - 25 = 175
4. **Probability that the selected item from the first box is not faulty:**
$$P(\text{not faulty from first box}) = \frac{175}{200} = \frac{7}{8} = 0.875$$
5. **Second box:**
- Total items = 1000
- Faulty items = 100
- Non-faulty items = 1000 - 100 = 900
6. **(i) Probability that the selected item from the second box is faulty:**
$$P(\text{faulty from second box}) = \frac{100}{1000} = \frac{1}{10} = 0.1$$
7. **(ii) Probability that both items (one from each box) are not faulty:**
Since the selections are independent, multiply the probabilities:
$$P(\text{not faulty from first box}) \times P(\text{not faulty from second box}) = \frac{7}{8} \times \frac{900}{1000} = \frac{7}{8} \times \frac{9}{10} = \frac{63}{80} = 0.7875$$
**Final answers:**
- Probability selected item from first box is not faulty: $0.875$
- (i) Probability selected item from second box is faulty: $0.1$
- (ii) Probability both items are not faulty: $0.7875$
