Question
A 6-digit number is formed using the digits 1, 2, 3, 4,
5 and 6. If each digit can be used only once, then find the probability that the number formed will be divisible by 2.Solution
Total numbers formed = 6! = 720
To be divisible by 2, the unit digit must be even β 2, 4 or 6
Fix unit digit as 2 β remaining 5 digits can be arranged in 5! = 120 ways
Same for unit digit 4 β 5! = 120
Same for 6 β 5! = 120
Total such numbers = 3 Γ 120 = 360
Required probability = 360/720 = 1/2
