i have taken that the set of numbers from which we r choosing is not limited...i.e. all natural numbers
Q1 if n postiive integers are taken at random and multiplied together and pn is probablity that last digit of product is 2,4,6,8.Find pn and p4
Q2 2 integers r,s are drawn one at a time without relacememnt from set 1,2,3...n.If pk=P(r≤k l s≤k).Find 4p7 if n=25

all we requite is that atleast one of the n integers must be even n none of them must be divisivle by five
because only 2x5 will end in 0 rest all will give 2,4,6 or 8
prob integer is even =1/2
prob integer is not divisible by five and two=1-1/5-1/2+1/10=2/5
so probability = \sum_{r=1}^{n}{{n\choose r}\left(\frac{1}{2} \right)^r\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^{n-r}}
=\left(\frac{1}{2}+\frac{2}{5} \right)^n - {n\choose 0}\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^n
=\left(\frac{7}{10} \right)^n - {n\choose 0}\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^n
This is wrong as cases become too complicated n selection not required
got the first one......
we first include all possible numbers....
we see that in no way numbers divisible by five...(as it will then end in 0 or 5)
all other numbers are permitted
we see that 4 out of every 5 numbers is not divisible by 5
so \left(\frac{4}{5}\right)^n
but in this we have included a case where all numbers end with either 1 or 3.....but atleast one even is required
so we have to subtract
\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^n cases
as 2 out of every 5 number ends by 1 or 3
hence the ans
\left(\frac{4}{5}\right)^n-\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^n
whats not clear ??
its 4. p7 where pk=P(r≤k l s≤k)
** l denotes ""such that ""
