  • A
    $\frac{7}{10}$
  • B
    $\frac{15}{23}$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{3}$

Two numbers are selected randomly from the set $S = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10\}$ without replacement one by one. The probability that the minimum of the two numbers is divisible by $3$ or the maximum of the two numbers is divisible by $4$ is:

The probability that the product of the outcomes when three dice are rolled simultaneously is divisible by $4$ is equal to

For three events $A$, $B$, and $C$ of a sample space, $P(\text{exactly one of } A \text{ or } B \text{ occurs}) = P(\text{exactly one of } B \text{ or } C \text{ occurs}) = P(\text{exactly one of } C \text{ or } A \text{ occurs}) = \frac{1}{4}$. If the probability of all the three events occurring simultaneously is $\frac{1}{16}$, then the probability that at least one of the events occurs is:
