(i) the probability of getting a number

=\frac{1}{10}=0.1

(ii) the numbers less than 6 are: 1,2,3,4,5=5 numbers.

    the probability of  getting a number less than 6 

=\frac{5}{10}=0.5

(iii) the numbers greater than 6 are: 7,8,9,10=4 numbers.

      the probability of  getting a number greater than 6

     =\frac{4}{10}=0.4

(iv) 1 digit numbers = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 = 9 numbers

     the probability of  getting a 1 digit  number

=\frac{9}{10}=0.9
