Let SS be the sample space of all five digit numbers. If pp is the probability that a randomly selected number from SS, is a multiple of 77 but not divisible by 55, then 9p9p is equal to

Options

  1. A1.01461 . 0146
  2. B1.20851 . 2085
  3. C1.02851 . 0285
  4. D1.15211 . 1521

Correct answer

C. 1.02851 . 0285

Step-by-step solution

Given, five-digit number,

So n(S)=n\left(S\right) =total 55 digit number will be=9×104= 9 \times {10}^{4}

Now let A:A: number is multiple of 77 but not divisible by 55

Smallest 55 digit divisible by 77 is 1000310003

Largest 55 digit divisible by 77 is 9999599995

Now by using nth{n}^{th} term of A.P formula we have,

∴99995=10003+(n−1)7∴ 99995 = 10003 + \left(n - 1\right)7

⇒n=12857⇒ n = 12857

Now finding number which is divisible by 3535

Again using A.P formula we have,

99995=10010+(P−1)3599995 = 10010 + \left(P - 1\right)35

⇒P=2572⇒ P = 2572

Now number divisible by 77 but not by 3535 are

12857−2572=1028512857 - 2572 = 10285

So, probability will be P=1028590000P = \dfrac{10285}{90000}

And 9P=1.02859P = 1 . 0285
