Answer
The cards are numbered from 0 to 100.
Total number of cards = 101 (as there is no. zero card also)
(a) Favorable outcome = Getting a card having a number which is divisible by 6.
{0, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72, 78, 84, 90, 96}
Probability .
Hence, probability of getting a card which is divisible by 6 = .
(b) Favorable outcome = Getting a card having a number which is not divisible by 6.
P(getting a card not divisible by 6) = 1 - P(getting a card divisible by 6)
=
=
= .
Hence, probability of getting a card which is not divisible by 6 = .
