Answer:

The  probability that the drawn card has a number which is a perfect square is (d) [tex]\dfrac{1}{9}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

A box contains cards numbered [tex]6[/tex] to [tex]50[/tex]. So there are total [tex]45[/tex] cards, which is the sample space.

Among these cards, the numbers which are a perfect square are [tex]9,16,25,36,49[/tex]. So, there are [tex]5[/tex] perfect square number cards, whose probability we have to find.

Its probability is given by,

[tex]\begin{aligned}\dfrac{Cards Present}{Sample Space} &= \dfrac{5}{45} \\&=\dfrac{1}{9}\end{aligned}[/tex]

So, option d is correct.
