What is the probability that a randomly chosen number from the first 50 natural numbers is a composite number?

Explanation

There are 50 numbers in total from 1 to 50. Among these, 15 are prime numbers. Since 1 is neither prime nor composite, the remaining numbers (50 - 15 - 1 = 34) are composite. Therefore, the probability of selecting a composite number is 34 divided by 50, which simplifies to 17/25.
