2. The probability of getting a prime number is
(a) $\frac{1}{4}$$\quad$ (b) $\frac{1}{3}$$\quad$ (c) $\frac{5}{12}$$\quad$ (d) $\frac{1}{2}$$\quad$
3.The probability of getting a multiple of 7 is
(a) $\frac{1}{6}$$\quad$ (b) $\frac{1}{4}$$\quad$ (c) $\frac{1}{3}$$\quad$ (d) $\frac{1}{2}$$\quad$
4. The probability of getting a multiple of both 2 and 3 is
(a) $\frac{1}{4}$$\quad$ (b) $\frac{1}{3}$$\quad$ (c) $\frac{5}{12}$$\quad$ (d) $\frac{1}{2}$$\quad$
