Correct Answer

(D) \(\frac{16}{31}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Two integers are drawn from \(\{5,6, \ldots \ldots, 35\}\) Given, integer are 31 Total ways of choosing 2 integer from 31 integers \[ ={ }^{31} C_2 \] Two integer difference will be odd only when one is even and other is odd. Let \(A\) be the event of selecting two integers…
