Detailed Solution
The number of five digit numbers formed using the digits 0,2,4,5,7 without repetition n(S)=4×4!=96 A number is divisible by 5, if the unit digit is either zero or 5 The number of five digit numbers in which zero is in unit place is 4!=24 The number of five digit numbers in which five is in unit place is 3×3!=18 Hence the number of five digit numbers which are divisible by 5 is 24 +18=42 Hence the probability of the event is 4296=716
