The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the total number of integers between 0 and 100. The integers between 0 and 100 are 0, 1, 2, ..., 99. Therefore, the total number of integers is: \[ 100 \] ### Step 2: Identify the integers between 0 and 100 that are divisible by 9. The integers divisible by 9 in this range can be found by listing them: - The multiples of 9 are: 0, 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 81, 90, 99. Counting these, we find there are: \[ 12 \text{ integers (0 to 99) divisible by 9} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the probability that a randomly chosen integer is divisible by 9. The probability \( P(E1) \) that an integer is divisible by 9 is given by the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total outcomes: \[ P(E1) = \frac{\text{Number of integers divisible by 9}}{\text{Total number of integers}} = \frac{12}{100} = \frac{3}{25} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the probability that a randomly chosen integer is not divisible by 9. The probability \( P(E2) \) that an integer is not divisible by 9 can be found using the complement rule: \[ P(E2) = 1 - P(E1) \] Substituting the value we found for \( P(E1) \): \[ P(E2) = 1 - \frac{3}{25} = \frac{25 - 3}{25} = \frac{22}{25} \] ### Final Answers: (i) The probability that the integer is divisible by 9 is \( \frac{3}{25} \). (ii) The probability that the integer is not divisible by 9 is \( \frac{22}{25} \). ---
