The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will first define the sets and then calculate the required probability. ### Step 1: Define the Set A Let \( A \) be the set of all 4-digit natural numbers with no digit being 0. The digits can be from 1 to 9. ### Step 2: Count the Total Numbers in Set A The total number of 4-digit numbers can be calculated as follows: - The first digit can be any digit from 1 to 9 (9 choices). - The second digit can also be any digit from 1 to 9 (9 choices). - The third digit can also be any digit from 1 to 9 (9 choices). - The fourth digit can also be any digit from 1 to 9 (9 choices). Thus, the total number of 4-digit numbers in set \( A \) is: \[ |A| = 9 \times 9 \times 9 \times 9 = 9^4 = 6561 \] ### Step 3: Define the Set B Let \( B \subset A \) be the subset of numbers such that no permutation of the digits of \( x \) gives a number that is divisible by 4. A number is divisible by 4 if the number formed by its last two digits is divisible by 4. ### Step 4: Identify Even Digits The even digits available (since no digit can be 0) are 2, 4, 6, and 8. ### Step 5: Count the Numbers in Set B with All Even Digits To find the numbers in \( B \) that consist of all even digits, we can only use the digits 2, 4, 6, and 8. 1. **Case 1**: All four digits are even. - The first digit can be any of the 4 even digits (2, 4, 6, 8). - The second digit can also be any of the 4 even digits. - The third digit can also be any of the 4 even digits. - The fourth digit can also be any of the 4 even digits. Thus, the total number of 4-digit numbers with all even digits is: \[ |B| = 4 \times 4 \times 4 \times 4 = 4^4 = 256 \] ### Step 6: Calculate the Probability The probability of drawing a number from \( B \) with all even digits is given by the ratio of the size of \( B \) to the size of \( A \): \[ P = \frac{|B|}{|A|} = \frac{256}{6561} \] ### Step 7: Simplify the Probability This fraction cannot be simplified further, so we leave it as: \[ P = \frac{256}{6561} \] ### Final Answer The probability of drawing a number from \( B \) with all even digits is: \[ \frac{256}{6561} \]
