Find the no of 3 digit numbers such that atleast one of the digit is 6 (with repetitions) ?
Correct
Total no of 3 digit number = 9*10*10 = 900
No of 3 digit number- none of the digit is 6 = 8*9*9 = 648
No of 3 digit number – atleast one digit is 6 = 900-648 = 252
Incorrect
Total no of 3 digit number = 9*10*10 = 900
No of 3 digit number- none of the digit is 6 = 8*9*9 = 648
No of 3 digit number – atleast one digit is 6 = 900-648 = 252

A six-digit is to be formed from the given numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. Find the probability that the number is divisible by 4.
Correct
For a number to be divisible by 4, the last two digit should be divisible by 4.
So possible cases – 12, 16, 24, 32, 36, 52, 56, 64 (last two digits)
So favourable outcomes = 24 +24 +24 +24 + 24+ 24+24+24 = 192
So p = 192/720 = 4/15
Incorrect
For a number to be divisible by 4, the last two digit should be divisible by 4.
So possible cases – 12, 16, 24, 32, 36, 52, 56, 64 (last two digits)
So favourable outcomes = 24 +24 +24 +24 + 24+ 24+24+24 = 192
So p = 192/720 = 4/15

replacement. What is the probability that sum of the numbers are odd?
Correct
There are 25 odd and 25 even numbers from 1 to 50.
Sum will be odd if = odd + odd + odd, odd + even + even, even + odd + even, even+ even + odd
P= (1/2)*(1/2)*(1/2) + (1/2)*(1/2)*(1/2) + (1/2)*(1/2)*(1/2) + (1/2)*(1/2)*(1/2)
=4/8 = ½

There are 15 points in a plane out of which 6 are collinear. Find the number of lines that can be formed from 15 points.
Correct
From 15 points number of lines formed = 15c2
6 points are collinear, number of lines formed by these = 6c2
So total lines = 15c2 – 6c2 + 1 = 91
