Question

A student identification card consists

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{1}{30240}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

ID Card of 5 digits

Possibly Digits = {0,1...,9}

Required

Probability that a card has exact number 94213

First, we have o determine the total possible number of ID card numbers

Let the card number be represented by ABCDE

Given that repetition of digits is not allowed;

A can be any of 10 digits

B can any of the remaining 9 digits

C can be any of the remaining 8 digits

D can be any of the remaining 7 digits

E can be any of the remaining 6 digits

Total number of cards = 10 * 9 *8 * 7 * 6

Total = 30240

Provided that the card number is generated at random; each card number has the same probability of $\frac{1}{30240}$

Hence, the probability of having 94213 is $\frac{1}{30240}$
