A number is selected at random from the set \(\{1,2, \ldots \ldots, 100\}\). Given that the number selected is divisible 2 , the probability that it is also divisible by 3 or 5 , is

  1. A \(\frac{26}{50}\)
  2. B \(\frac{23}{50}\)
  3. C \(\frac{7}{50}\)
  4. D \(\frac{13}{50}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{23}{50}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The number divisible by 2 in set \(\{1,2,3, \ldots, 100\}\) are \(E=\{2,4,6, \ldots, 100\}\) and the numbers in set \(E\) are divisible by 3 or 5 are \(\{6,10,12,18,20,24,30,36,40,42,48,50,54,60\), \(66,70,72,78,80,84,90,96,100\}\) So, required probability is \(=\frac{23}{50}\)
