An integer is chosen at random from the first 100 positive integers. What is the probability that the integer chosen is exactly divisible by 7?

$\huge\bold\green{Answer}$

ʟᴇᴛ ᴀ ʙᴇ ᴛʜᴇ sᴇᴛ ᴏғ ɪɴᴛᴇɢᴇʀs ᴅɪᴠɪsɪʙʟᴇ ʙʏ $7$

So , A = $\bold{7, 14, 21 .... 98}$

$\bold{an = a+( n-1)d}$

$\bold{an = 98}$

$\bold{a= 7}$

$\bold{d = 7}$

$\bold{98 = 7+(n-1)7}$

$\bold{98 = 7+7n-7}$

$\bold{98 = 7n}$

$\bold{n = \frac{98}{7}}$

$\bold{n= 14}$

$\bold{Probablity= \frac{Number\: of \:favourable}{Total \:number\: of \:outcomes}}$

ɴᴜᴍʙᴇʀ ᴏꜰ ꜰᴀᴠᴏᴜʀᴀʙʟᴇ = $100$

∴ ᴛʜᴇ ᴘʀᴏʙᴀʙʟɪᴛʏ ᴛʜᴀᴛ ᴛʜᴇ ɴᴜᴍʙᴇʀ ᴄʜᴏsᴇɴ ɪs ᴇxᴀᴄᴛʟʏ ᴅɪᴠɪsɪʙʟᴇ ʙʏ $7$

= $\bold{\frac{14}{100}}$

= $\large\bold{\frac{7}{50}}$

= $\bold{0.14}$
