Detailed Solution

It is given that, an integer is chosen between 0 and 100 .
As the number of integers between 0 and 100 is, n(S)=99 .
The integers which are divisible by 7 between 0 and 100 are 7,14,21,28,35,42,49,56,63,70,77,84,91,98 .
So, the total number of integers which is divisible by 7 is,
n(E)=14
The probability that the integers are divisible by 7 can be calculated by using the formula,
P(E)= n(E) n(S)
= 14 99
The probability is 14 99 .
The probability of the event and its complementary event is given by,
P(E)+P( E ¯ )=1
If P( E ¯ ) is the event that the integer is not divisible by 7, then,
P( E ¯ )=1P(E)
=1 14 99
= 85 99
The probability is 85 99 .
Hence, option 4) is correct.
