Problem
A non-zero digit is chosen in such a way that the probability of choosing digit is . The probability that the digit is chosen is exactly the probability that the digit chosen is in the set
(A)
(B)
(C)
(D)
Solution
We have , so the probability of choosing is . The probability that the digit chosen is in the set must therefore be which, by definition, is the probability that the digit chosen is in the set .
Final answer
C
