Answer
Sample space = {1, 2, 3, ……., 40}, with 40 equally likely outcomes.
Let A be the event that selected ticket has a number which is a multiple of 5.
∴ A = {5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40}.
Hence, the number of favourable outcomes to event A = 8.
∴ P(A) = .
Hence, Option 1 is the correct option.
