There is a shooting event organised by the SBT youth Club to select the best candidate who will qualify to participate in Eklavya championship. The shooting board is designed by using 4 concentric circles of radii 2 inch, 3 inch, 5 inch and 9 inch. What is the probability that the participant will shoot only in the second ring [from the outside] to qualify for Eklavya championship.
The board is as follows.
The required probability = $$\frac{\pi\left(5\right)^2-\pi\left(3\right)^2}{\pi\left(9\right)^2}=\frac{25-9}{81}=\frac{16}{81}$$
Hence, the answer is option D.
