Probability is Number of favourable outcomes by total outcomes

Total comes = 2 (Divisible or not)

Favourable = 1 (Divisible)

Hence, probability = 1/2.

Three digit number will have unit’s, ten’s and hundred’s place.

Out of 5 given digits any one can take the unit’s place.

This can be done in 5 ways. ...              (i)

After filling the unit’s place, any of the four remaining digits can take the ten’s place.

This can be done in 4 ways. ...              (ii)

After filling in ten’s place, hundred’s place can be filled from any of the three remaining digits.

This can be done in 3 ways. ... (iii) 

So,by counting principle, the number of 3 digit numbers = 5x 4 x 3 = 60

Sum of ages of husband, wife and child= (24 × 3) + 9 = 81 years

Sum of ages of wife and child => 25 × 2 + 10 = 50 + 10 = 60 years

Age of husband = 81 - 60 = 21 years.

Assume that the number is taken as XYZ.
Condition 1 => Z = sq.root(x) => Possible digits of X is 1,4,9
Condition 2 => Y = X + Z
X Y Z
1 2 1
4 6 2
9 12 3 => (wrong because it is 4 digit.)

and 121 is not divisible by 2

The answer is 462.

Here in this pack of cards, n(S) = 52

Let E = event of getting a queen of the club or a king of the heart

Then, n(E) = 2

P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 2/52 = 1/26

Let the required number be 'p'

36 of what number is 18 implies 36% of p = 18

=> 36 x p/100 = 18

=> p = 1800/36

=> p = 50.

Hence, 36% of 50 is 18.

PW = Amount1+R100T=28001+121002   = Rs.2500 

TD = Amount - PW = 2800 - 2500 = Rs.300
