Let . Then the probability, that a randomly chosen number n from the set S such that , is :
- (A)
- (B)
- (C)
- (D)✓ Correct
Answer: (D)
Solution
First, factorize . We need numbers in that are coprime to 2022, i.e., not divisible by 2, 3, or 337.
Let A = numbers divisible by 2: .
Let B = numbers divisible by 3: .
Let C = numbers divisible by 337: .
= numbers divisible by 6 = 337.
= numbers divisible by 674 = 3.
= numbers divisible by 1011 = 2.
= numbers divisible by 2022 = 1.
By inclusion-exclusion:
Numbers coprime to 2022: .
Probability = .

Let A = numbers divisible by 2: .
Let B = numbers divisible by 3: .
Let C = numbers divisible by 337: .
= numbers divisible by 6 = 337.
= numbers divisible by 674 = 3.
= numbers divisible by 1011 = 2.
= numbers divisible by 2022 = 1.
By inclusion-exclusion:
Numbers coprime to 2022: .
Probability = .
