The following frequency distribution table shows the concentration of sulphur dioxide $(SO_2)$ in the air in parts per million $(ppm)$ of a certain city for $30$ days. Using this table,find the probability of the concentration of sulphur dioxide being in the interval $0.12 - 0.16$ on any of these days.
Concentration of $SO_2$ (in $ppm$)Number of days (frequency)

Ask all the students in your class to write a $3-$digit number. Choose any student from the room at random. What is the probability that the number written by her/him is divisible by $3$? Remember that a number is divisible by $3$,if the sum of its digits is divisible by $3$.

$A$ die is thrown $1000$ times with the frequencies for the outcomes $1, 2, 3, 4, 5$ and $6$ as given in the following table:
Outcome $1$ $2$ $3$ $4$ $5$ $6$
Frequency $179$ $150$ $157$ $149$ $175$ $190$

Find the probability of getting each outcome.

Consider the frequency distribution table which gives the weights of $38$ students of a class.
Weights (in $kg$) Number of students
$31-35$ $9$
$36-40$ $5$
$41-45$ $14$
$46-50$ $3$
$51-55$ $1$
$56-60$ $2$
$61-65$ $2$
$66-70$ $1$
$71-75$ $1$
Total $38$

$(i)$ Find the probability that the weight of a student in the class lies in the interval $46-50 \, kg$.
$(ii)$ Give two events in this context,one having probability $0$ and the other having probability $1$.

$A$ tyre manufacturing company kept a record of the distance covered before a tyre needed to be replaced. The table shows the results of $1000$ cases.
Distance (in $km$)less than $4000$$4000$ to $9000$$9001$ to $14000$more than $14000$
Frequency$20$$210$$325$$445$

If you buy a tyre of this company,what is the probability that:
$(i)$ it will need to be replaced before it has covered $4000 \, km$?
$(ii)$ it will last more than $9000 \, km$?
$(iii)$ it will need to be replaced after it has covered somewhere between $4000 \, km$ and $14000 \, km$?

$A$ teacher wanted to analyze the performance of two sections of students in a mathematics test of $100$ marks. Looking at their performances,she found that a few students got under $20$ marks and a few got $70$ marks or above. So she decided to group them into intervals of varying sizes as follows: $0-20, 20-30, ..., 60-70, 70-100$. Then she formed the following table:
Marks Number of students
$0-20$ $7$
$20-30$ $10$
$30-40$ $10$
$40-50$ $20$
$50-60$ $20$
$60-70$ $15$
$70$ and above $8$
Total $90$

$(i)$ Find the probability that a student obtained less than $20\%$ in the mathematics test.
$(ii)$ Find the probability that a student obtained marks $60$ or above.
