If x=3n, where n is a positive integral value, then what is the probability that x will have 3 at unit's place? |
$\frac{1}{3}$ $\frac{1}{4}$ $\frac{1}{5}$ $\frac{1}{2}$ |
$\frac{1}{4}$ |
We have, $3^1 = 3, 3^2 =9, 3^3 = 27,3^4 = 81, 3^5= 243, 3^6= 729$ etc. So, a natural number of the form 3n may have either 3 or 9 or 7 or 1 at unit's place. ∴ Total number of elementary events = 4 Clearly, only one number has 3 at unit's place.. ∴ Favourable number of ways = 1 |
