Question

A four digit number is formed using the digits 1, 2, 3, 5 with no repetitions. Write the probability that the number is divisible by 5.

✓

Answer

To be divisibel by 5 ones place sholud be 5
There are 3 place remaining which can be filled in 3! = 6 ways
So, 6 number can be formed out of 1, 2, 3 and 5, which are divisible by 5.
Total 4 - digit numbers = 4! = 24
P (4-digit number divisible by 5) $=\frac{6}{24}$
$=\frac{1}{4}$
