An integer is chosen at random from first hundred natural numbers. The probability that the integer chosen the multiple of 5 is

Answer: 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The first hundred natural numbers are 1 to 100.

Now, the numbers that are multiples of 5 are the numbers that end in 5 or 0, so we have:

5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100

So in the range, we have 20 multiples of 5.

Now, when we select at random, each number has the same probability of being selected, then the probability of randomly selecting a multiple of 5 is equal to the number of multiples of 5 divided the total number of options in the set.

we have 20 multiples of 5, and in the set we have a total of 100 numbers, then the probability is:

P = 20/100 = 0.2
