Probability: The First 100 Digits of Pi


Follow the steps below to find the probability of randomly selecting each digit
in the first 100 digits of pi. Then answer the questions that follow.

First, complete the frequency table to show how often each digit appears in
the first 100 digits of pi. The first 100 digits of pi are shown below.

Frequency

Now, find the probability of randomly selecting each digit. Write each probability as a fraction in simplest
form, decimal, and percent.

P(0) = _________ = _________ = _________ P (1) = _________ = _________ = _________

P(2) = _________ = _________ = _________ P (3) = _________ = _________ = _________

P(4) = _________ = _________ = _________ P (5) = _________ = _________ = _________

P(6) = _________ = _________ = _________ P (7) = _________ = _________ = _________

P(8) = _________ = _________ = _________ P (9) = _________ = _________ = _________

Answer the questions using the probabilities you found.

Which digit or digits are most likely to be randomly Which digit or digits are least likely to be randomly
selected in the first 100 digits of pi? selected in the first 100 digits of pi?
