Three numbers are chosen at random without replacement from the set A= x Z 2 x 11 . The probability that the minimum of chosen numbers is 3 and maximum is 7 is
Options
- A1 30
- B1 40
- C1 50
- D1 60
Correct answer
B. 1 40
Step-by-step solution
Here, A= 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11 Let E be the event of choosing 3 numbers and let F be the event of choosing 3 numbers in which 3 is and 7 is array lrl & F & = (3,4,7),(3,5,7),(3,6,7) & n(F) & =3 & n(E) & = ¹⁰ C₃=120 Required probability = n(F) n(E) = 3 120 = 1 40 array
