{10, 12, 24, 50, 60, 100, 260, 480, 606, 1000}. What is the probability that
a number selected randomly from the set will be divisible by both 4 and 6?
Just guess and check if each number is divisible by 6 and 4. It needs to be both numbers so a number like 606 that you can only divide by 6 would not work. The numbers 12, 24, 60, and 480 work for 6 and 4. This is if you want for the quotient (answer) to be a whole number. Technically any number is divisible by 4 and 6. If the answer you want is in whole numbers you should get 4/10 or 2/5.
The numbers that are divisible by both 4 and 6 are 12, 24, 60, and 480, or 4 total numbers from the set. So 4 out of the 10 numbers are divisible by 4 and 6. The probablility is 4/10, which reduces to 2/5. The correct answer is 2/5.
