A

a) `6/25`

B

b) `1/4`

C

c) `1/6`

D

d) `1/5`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d) `1/5`

Let,

Total sample space `=100`

`S=` number is divisible by either `6` or `8` but not by `24`

There are 20 such numbers

`n(S)=20`

`P=20/100=1/5`

Hence, correct option is d)
