Let AA be a set of all 44 -digit natural numbers whose exactly one digit is 77. Then the probability that a randomly chosen element of AA leaves remainder 22 when divided by 55 is:

Options

  1. A15\dfrac{1}{5}
  2. B122297\dfrac{122}{297}
  3. C97297\dfrac{97}{297}
  4. D29\dfrac{2}{9}

Correct answer

C. 97297\dfrac{97}{297}

Step-by-step solution

n(s)=nn\left(s\right) = n( when 77 appears on thousands place ) +n+ n(77 does not appear on thousands place)

=9×9×9+8×9×9×3= 9 \times 9 \times 9 + 8 \times 9 \times 9 \times 3

=33×9×9= 33 \times 9 \times 9

n(E)=nn\left(E\right) = n( last digit 7 and 77 \text{ and } 7 appears once)+n+ n( last digit 22 when 77 appears once)

=8×9×9+(9×9+8×9×2)= 8 \times 9 \times 9 + \left(9 \times 9 + 8 \times 9 \times 2\right)

∴P(E)=8×9×9+9×2533×9×9=97297∴ P\left(E\right) = \dfrac{8 \times 9 \times 9 + 9 \times 25}{33 \times 9 \times 9} = \dfrac{97}{297}
