\nAll the multiples of 5 till 50 are 10 i.e from 5,10\u2026.50
\nIn the above multiples there are few numbers which are common multiples of 4 and 5 and so they are repeated twice so they are to be removed
\nLCM of 4 and 5 is 20
\nMultiples of 20 are 20 and 40 which lie below 50
\nTherefore total numbers are 12+10-2
\n=22-2
\n=20
\nProbability of selecting a number which is either divisible by 4 or 5 from first 50 natural numbers is 20\/50
\n=2\/5
\n=0.4<\/p>\n
\nBy taking E as first letter we have 4! words=24
\nBy taking I as first letter and A as the second letter we have 3! Words
\nBy taking I as first letter and E as the second letter we have 3! Words
\nBy taking I as first letter and L as second letter and A as third letter we have 2 words
\nAnd the second word is ILANE
\nSo 24+24+6+6+1=61 words come before the word ILANE<\/p>\n
\n5 persons sitting in 7 places i.e i 7C5 ways=(7*6)\/(1*2)=21
\nSo total number of ways=56+21=77 ways<\/p>\n
\nFirst select 2 males out of four i.e 4C2=(4*3)\/2 =6 ways
\nthen select 2 females out of four i.e 4C2=(4*3)\/2 =6 ways
\nThen first male can be paired with two females and second male can be paired with only one female.
\nTherefore required ways=6*6*2*1
\n=72 ways<\/p>\n
\nAnd the number of Rs 2 coins be y
\nTherefore x+5y=80
\nSo for every x there should be one y and vice versa
\nY take values from y=0 to y=16
\nI.e for every y from 0 to 16,we will have x
\nSo for y=0 we have x=80
\nFor y=1 we have x=75
\nSo on
\nTherefore 16+1=17 ways are possible<\/p>\n
\nFavourable cases = (1,1) (1,2) (2,1) (1,3) (3,1) (2,2)
\nTotal cases = 6*6 = 36
\nSo probability $= \\frac{ \\text{Favourable cases}}{\\text{Total cases}}$
\n$= \\frac{6}{36} =\\frac{1}{6}$<\/p>\n
\nProbability of getting a tail = 0.5
\nNumber of heads $\\leq$ Number of tails.
\nTherefore, the number of heads can be 0,1, 2 or 3.
\nSample space = $2^6$ = 64.
\n0 heads can be obtained in 6C0 = 1 way.
\n1 head can be obtained in 6C1 = 6 ways.
\n2 heads can be obtained in 6C2 = 30\/2 = 15 ways.
\n3 heads can be obtained in 6C3 = 20 ways.<\/p>\n
\nTherefore, option D is the right answer.<\/p>\n
\nTotal number of ways in which 3 pens can be selected = 21C3 = (21*20*19)\/(1*2*3) = 1330 ways.
\nNumber of ways in which 3 pens of different colour can be selected = 5*6*10 = 300 ways<\/p>\n
\nTherefore, probability of not converting the interview of a college = 1-0.5 = 0.5
\nProbability of not converting any of the 4 colleges = 0.5*0.5*0.5*0.5 = 0.0625 or 6.25%
\nTherefore, probability of converting at least 1 college = 100 – 6.25 = 93.75%.
\nTherefore, option A is the right answer.<\/p>\n
\nTherefore, option B is the right answer.<\/p>\n
\nNumbers on a dice which are prime = 2, 3, 5
\nHence, the probability of getting a prime number on any dice = \u00bd
\nNow the outcomes of both the dies are independent of each other. Hence, the probability that both dies will have a prime outcome = $\\frac{1}{2}*\\frac{1}{2}$ = $\\frac{1}{4}$<\/p>\n
\nRadius of the inner circle = $7 – 3.5$ = $3.5$ cm.<\/p>\n
\nRatio of areas = $\\frac{\\pi r^2}{\\pi (2r)^2}$
\nTherefore, the areas will be in the ratio $1:4$.
\nTherefore, the required probability is $25$%. Hence, option B is the right answer.<\/p>\n
\nIf 3 men are to be selected, the number of ways in which the committee can be formed is 4C3 * 4C2
\n= 4*6 = 24 ways.<\/p>\n
\nTherefore, the total number of ways in which the committee can be formed is 24+4 = 28 ways. Hence, option E is the right answer.<\/p>\n
\nThe number of ways in which 2 red balls can be selected is 5C2 = 10.
\nThe number of ways in which 2 green balls can be selected is 3C2 = 3.<\/p>\n
\nThere are 18 balls in total (10+5+3)
\nNumber of ways in which 2 balls can be selected = 18C2 = 153.
\nTherefore, the probability is 58\/153.<\/p>\n
\n3*(1\/x) + 3*(2\/x) = 1 (Since the total probability is 1).
\n9\/x = 1.
\n=> x= 9.
\nThe probability of the dice showing number 3 is 1\/9 (Since it is an odd number).<\/p>\n
