A die is rolled. If X denotes the number of positive divisors of the outcome then the range of the random variable X is

  1. A 1, 2, 3
  2. B 1, 2, 3, 4
  3. C 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
  4. D 1, 3, 5
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 1, 2, 3, 4

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The possible outcomes with their positive divisors are:-
\(
\begin{array}{|c|c|c|}
\hline \text { outcome } & \text { positive divisors } & \text { number (X) } \\
\hline 1 & 1 & 1 \\
\hline 2 & 1,2 & 2 \\
\hline 3 & 1,3 & 2 \\
\hline 4 & 1,2,4 & 3 \\
\hline 5 & 1,5 & 2 \\
\hline 6 & 1,2,3,6 \\
\hline
\end{array}
\)
Hence, Range of \(X=\{1,2,3,4\}\)
