Detailed Solution

The prime digits are 2, 3, 5, 7. If we fix 2 at first place, then other 2n - 1 places are filled by all four digits. So the total number of cases is 42n-1.Now, sum of 2 consecutive digits is prime when consecutive digits are (2,3) or (2, 5).Then 2 will be fixed at all alternative places.So favorable number of cases is 2n. Therefore, probability is2n42n−1=2n2−4n+2=222−3n=423n
