A number, x is chosen at random from the set of positive integers less than 10. What is the probability that (8/x) > x? Choose the correct choice:
A) 1/5
B) 2/8
C) 1/3
D) 2/3
E) 7/9
Number x has to be chosen from numbers 1-9   (8/x) &gt; x   =&gt; 8 &gt; x^2   =&gt;x^2 - 8 &lt; 0   x can have 2 values only 1 , 2   Therefore , probability = 2 / 8   Answer 2/8
