A bag contains lemon flavoured candies only. Malini takes out one candy without looking into the bag. What is the probability that she takes out (i) an orange flavoured candy? (ii) a lemon flavoured candy?

(i)
Answer

0

(ii)
Answer

1

Explanation

This question tests the understanding of elementary probability concepts. Since the bag contains ONLY lemon flavoured candies, the probability of drawing an orange flavoured candy is impossible (probability = 0), while drawing a lemon flavoured candy is certain (probability = 1). This aligns with the fundamental property that probability of an impossible event is 0 and probability of a sure event is 1.
