  2. B \(1 / 2\)
  3. C \(1 / 10\)
  4. D 9/13
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(1 / 25\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} & n(S)=100 \\ & E=\{1,8 ; 27,64\} \\ & n(E)=4\end{aligned}\) \(\therefore\) Required probability \(=p(E)=\frac{n(E)}{n(S)}=\frac{4}{100}=\frac{1}{25}\)
