  1. A \(\frac{14}{31}\)
  2. B \(\frac{7}{30}\)
  3. C \(\frac{14}{15}\)
  4. D \(\frac{7}{15}\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\frac{7}{15}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

No. of total events \(=30\) Multiples of 3 are \(3,6,9,12,15,18,21\), \(24,27,30\) Multiples of 5 are \(5,10,15,20,25,30\) Then multiples of 3 or 5 are : \(3,5,6,9,10,12,15\), \(18,20,21,24,25,27,30\) \(\therefore\) No. of favourable events \(=14\) The required probability…
