Let A denote the event that a 6-digit integer formed by 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 without repetitions, be divisible by 3.  Then probability of event A is equal to:

a
1127
b
49
c
956
d
37

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Total number of 6 digited numbers from 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6=6×6×5×4×3×2 ∴n(S)=6×6!;    We have 0+1+2+3+4+5+6=21Therefore 6 digited number divisible by 3 can be formed by using the digits  1,2,3,4,5,6 in 6! ways.  By using  the digits 0,1,2,4,5,6 in 5×5!  ways by using the digits 0,1,2,3,4,5 in 5×5! ways  Hence, P(E)=6!+2×5×5!6×6!=6+1036=49
