Q:

The Number of times the digit 8 will be written when listing the integers from 1 to 1000 is :

A) 100 B) 200
C) 300 D) 400
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 300

Explanation:

 Since 8 does not occur in 1000, we have to count the number of times 8 occurs when we list the integers from 1 to 999. Any number between 1 and 999 is of the form xyz, where 0x,y,z9.

 

Let us first count the numbers in which 8 occurs exactly once.

 

Since 8 can occur atone place in 3C1ways. There are 3 x 9 x 9  such numbers.

 

Next, 8 can occur in exactly two places in 3C2×9 such numbers. Lastly, 8 can occur in all three digits in one number only.

  

Hence, the number of times 8 occur is 

 1×3×92+2×3×9+3×1 = 300

Q:

Three unbiased coins are tossed. What is the probability of getting at most two heads ?

A) 4/3 B) 2/3
C) 3/2 D) 3/4
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 3/4

Explanation:

Let S be the sample space.
Here n(S)= 23 = 8
Let E be the event of getting atmost two heads. Then,
n(E) = {(H,T,T), (T,H,T), (T,T,H), (H,H,T), (T,H,H), (H,T,H)}
Required probability = n(E)/n(S) = 6/8 = 3/4.
