Detailed Solution

The last digit of the product will be 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 or 9 if and only if each of the n positive integers ends in any of these digits. Now the probability of an integer ending in 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 or 9 is 810 There fore the probability that the last digit of the product of n integers in 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8  or 9 is  45n The probability for an interger to end in 1,3,7 or 9 is  410=25
There fore the probability for the product of n positive integers to end in 1,3,7 or 9 is  25n
Hence the required probability 

=45n25n=4n2n5n
