A bag contains cards numbered from 1 to 25. A card is drawn at random from the bag. The probability that the number on this card is divisible by both 2 and 3 is
(A)`1/5`
(B)`3/25`
(C)`4/25`
(D)`2/25`
उत्तर
Total number of possible outcomes = 25
Let E be the event that the number on the card drawn is divisible by both 2 and 3.
∴ E = {6, 12, 18, 24}
∴ Number of outcomes favourable to E = 4
