A

`(499)/(900)`

B

`(5)/(9)`

C

`(1)/(2)`

D

`(500)/(899)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
(i) Total number of three digits numbers =900.
Total number of three digits even numbers = 450.
(ii) The first and the last three digits numbers, which are multiplies of 2 are 100 and 998.
(ii) Count the numbers in the above case.
(iv) The total number of three digits number are 900.
(v) Apply the formula to find the required probability.
