10. B

Hints For Ques. (5-10)

5. (C) From the given digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 numbers formed is n(S) = 5P3= 60
For divisibility with 2, even number or 0 should appear at unit place, here 2, 4 are even numbers and can occupy unit place in 2! ways, Rest 2 place can be filled in 4P2 ways
n(E) = 4P2*2 =12*2=24
Required Probability = 24/60 =2/5

6. (B)Probability that not divisible by 2 = 1- Probability that divisible by 2 =1-2/5 =3/5

7. (A) A number ends with 5, 0 then the number will be divisible by 5
Here only 5 is present, end place will be fixed by 5 so,
n(E)= 4P2
n(S)= 5P3
Required probability = 4P2/5P3= 1/5

8.(C) Required Probability = (10C1*15C2)/ 25C3 = 21/46

9. (D) Required probability =4C2/52C2 =1/221

10.(B) 15/36 =5/12
