Question

Tim’s bank requires its customers to have a 4-digit personal identification number (PIN) to access their accounts. If each digit can be a value from 0 to 9, and a 4-digit number is randomly generated, what is the probability that the number 1234 will be Tim’s PIN? A. 1 6,561 B. 1 5,040 C. 10,000 D.1 10,000

Answer 1

6,561 is your answer to this question

Answer 2

Answer:

1/10000

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 10 choices for each of the 4 digits.  This means the total number of choices for the PIN are

10(10)(10)(10) = 10000

The number 1234 will only appear 1 time in this list; this makes the probability it is Tim's PIN 1/10000.
