(c) 1.0285
Explanation:
Let sample space n(S) = all 5 digit nos = 9 × 104
A : no is multiple of 7 but not divisible by 5
Smallest 5 digit divisible by 7 is 10003
Largest 5 digit divisible by 7 is 99995
∴ 99995 = 10003 + (n - 1)7, n = 12857

Numbers divisible by 7 and 5 i.e. 35

99995 = 10010 + (P - 1)35
⇒ 99995 - 10010 + 35 = 35P ⇒ P = 2572
∴ Numbers divisible b 7 but not by 35 are
12857 - 2572 = 10285
∴ P = ∴ 9P = 1.0285

Explanation:

4/6
 ∵ P (A ∩ B) = P (A) + P (B) − P (A ∪ B)

= 1 - 0.8 = 0.2
Now,
∵ P (A ∪ B ∪ C ) = P (A) + P (B) + P (C ) − P (A ∩ B) −P (B ∩ C ) − P (C ∩ A) + P (A ∩ B ∩ C )

⇒ α = 0.6 + 0.4 + 0.5 - 0.2 - β - 0.3 + 0.2

⇒ β = 1.2 - α

∵ α ∈ [0.85, 0.95] then β ∈ [0.25, 0.35]

Explanation:
Total number of ways placing 10 different balls in 4 distinct boxes = 410
Since, two of the 4 distinct boxes contains exactly 2 and 3 balls.
Then, there are three cases to place exactly 2 and 3 balls in 2 of the 4 boxes.
Case-1: When boxes contains balls in order 2, 3, 0, 5
Then, number of ways of placing the balls
10!
= × 4!
2!×3!×0!×5!

Case-2: When boxes contains ball in order 2,3,1,4.

Then, number of ways of placing the balls

Case-3: When boxes contains ball in order 2, 3, 2, 3

Then, number of ways of placing the balls

Explanation:
When a card is drawn from a well shuffled deck of 52 cards,
Total number of possible outcomes = 52.
