MCQ
Three distinct numbers are selected from first $100$ natural numbers. The probability that all the three numbers are divisible by $2$ and $3$ is
  • A
    $4/25$
  • B
    $4/35$
  • C
    $4/55$
  • $4/1155$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$4/1155$
d
(d) The numbers should be divisible by $6$. Thus, the number of favourable ways is $^{16}{C_3}$ (as there are $16$ numbers in first $100$ natural numbers, divisible by $6$).
Required probability is $\frac{{^{16}{C_3}}}{{^{100}{C_3}}} = \frac{{16 \times 15 \times 14}}{{100 \times 99 \times 98}} = \frac{4}{{1155}}$.
