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.
