Detailed Solution

Given that a bag contains 100 tickets having numbers from 1 to 100.
We have to find the probability of getting a ticket having a number which is a multiple of 25.
Hence, total number of tickets, n(S)=100
Numbers from 1 to 100 which are multiples of 25: 25,50,75,100
Hence, total number of favourable outcomes, n(E)=4.
We know that, probability P(E)=nEnS
The probability of getting a ticket having a number which is a multiple of 25:
PE=4100 =0.04 Hence, the required probability is 0.04.
Therefore, option (2) is correct.
