JEE Main2017MathematicsProbabilityActual
If two different numbers are taken from the set 0 , 1 , 2 , 3 , . . . . . , 10 ; then the probability that their sum as well as absolute difference are both multiple of 4 , is:
Options
- A6 55
- B12 55
- C14 45
- D7 55
Correct answer
A. 6 55
Step-by-step solution
Required favourable cases are 0 ,   4 , 0 ,   8 , 2 ,   6 , 2 ,   10 , 4 ,   8 , 6 ,   10 So, favourable cases = 6 Total cases = 11 C 2 = 11 × 10 2 = 55 Hence, the required probability = 6 55
