a bag contains card numbered from 1 to 50 .a card is drawn at random from the bag then the probability that no. is divisible by both 3and 4 is (a) 1/10. (b)1/25 (c) 3/25 (d)2/25

Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
- Option (d)2/25 is correct
Explanation :
Total numbers of cards = 50
We know that the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 3 and 4 is 12. That means multiples of 12 are divisible by both 3 and 4.
Therefore multiples of 12 that are divisible by both 3 and 4 are 12 , 24, 36, 48 .
Hence total number of favourable outcomes or cases = 4
The required probability
P ( A) = Number of favourable outcomes or cases \ Total number of outcomes or cases
P ( A) = 4 \ 50
P ( A) = 4 ÷ 2 \ 50 ÷ 2
The required probability
P ( A) = 2 \ 25
- So option (d)2/25 is correct

(a) No. of perfect square between 1 to 50 =7 (from 12 to 72)
Therefore the probability that the card is drawn is a perfect square =507
(b)No.of integers divisible by 6 between 1 to 50 =8 (from 6×1→6×8)
Therefore the probability that the card is drawn is divisible by 6 =508=254
