A bag contains books numbered 1 to 20 . Three books are drawn from the bag with replacement. The probability that largest number on the book is 7 .

  1. A \(\frac{2}{17}\)
  2. B \(\frac{1}{20}\)
  3. C \(1-\left(\frac{7}{20}\right)^3\)
  4. D \(\left(\frac{7}{20}\right)^3-\left(\frac{6}{20}\right)^3\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\left(\frac{7}{20}\right)^3-\left(\frac{6}{20}\right)^3\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The total probability of selecting 3 books and whose page number is less than or equal to 7 is \(\left(\frac{7}{20}\right)^3\). Total probability of selecting 3 books whose page number is less than 7 is \(\left(\frac{6}{20}\right)^3\). \(\therefore\) Requiried probability…
