Answer : 2. "3/10"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 3/10 Explanation: Here, S = {1, 2, 3, 4, ...., 19, 20}=> n(s) = 20Let E = event of getting a multiple of 4 or 15 =multiples od 4 are {4, 8, 12, 16, 20}And multiples of 15 means multiples of 3 and 5= {3, 6 , 9, 12, 15, 18, 5, 10, 15, 20}.= the common multiple is only (15).=> E = n(E)= 6Required Probability = P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 6/20 = 3/10.

Answer : 3. "0.375"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 0.375 Explanation: Expressing 3/8 as a decimal fraction: We can convert 3/8 into a decimal fraction by just dividing 3 by 8 or making 3 into 8 parts. Then, it is 3/8 = 0.375 as a decimal fraction. Other Method:: 3/8 as a Decimal : In this we should convert the denominator into 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000,... to make it simple.

Answer : 4. "1022"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 1022 Explanation: Lowest 4-digit number is 1000.LCM of 3, 4 and 5 is 60.Dividing 1000 by 60, we get the remainder 40. Thus, the lowest 4-digit number that exactly divisible by 3, 4 and 5 is 1000 + (60 - 40) = 1020.Now, add the remainder 2 that's required. Thus, the answer is 1022.
