  • Question
  • If n integer taken at random are multiplied together then the probability that the last digit of the product is 2, 4, 6, 8 is?


  • Options
  • A. 2n/5n
  • B. 4n - 2n / 5n
  • C. 4n/5n
  • D. 8n - 4n / 5n

  • Correct Answer
  • 4n - 2n / 5n 

    Explanation

    If the last digit in the product is to 2, 4, 6, 8 the last digit in all the n number should not be 0 and 5 and the last digit of all number should not be selected exclusively from the set of number {1, 3, 7, 9}
    ? Favourable number of cases
    = 8n - 4n
    But generally the last digit can be one of 0, 1, 2, 3, .... 9.
    Hence, the total number of ways = 10n
    Hence, the required probability
    = 8n - 4n / 10n
    = 4n - 2n / 5n
