Given, an assertion and a reason.
Assertion, a number Question Image is chosen at random from the numbersQuestion Image then the probability that Question Image is Question Image.
Reason, the probability that a number selected from the numbersQuestion Image is a multiple of 3 isQuestion Image.
 The modulus of any positive or negative number is a positive number.
Total number of outcomes is 7.
The possible outcomes that satisfy the function is 1,0,1  . The total number of possible outcomes 3.
The required probability is,  P(A)= 3 7   Therefore, the assertion is wrong but the reason is correct.
Hence, the correct option is 4.
