Question

Seven turtles are caught and we count the number of males.

Event A: More than 3 are males. What is the complement of event A?

A. No more than 3 turtles are males = {0, 1, 2, 3}

B. {1, 2}

C. {4, 5, 6, 7}

D. Impossible event

Answer 1

We have given

Event A : More than 3 are male.

and We want to find complement of event A i.e. A'

A' = 1 - A i.e. No more than 3 turtles are male = { 0,1,2,3 }

So Option (A) is correct answer.

Thank you.
