Answer. [11/75]
Solution. Probability; Probability means possibility. It is a branch of mathematics that deals with the occurrence of a random event. The value is expressed from zero to one
Total slips = 25 + 50 = 75
Slips marked other than 1 = Rs. 5 slips + Rs. 13 slips 
= 6 + 5 = 11
Favourable cases = 11
Probability = \frac{Number\, of\, favourable\ cases }{Total\, number\, of\, cases}
Probability that slips is not marked 1 = \frac{11}{75}
