Two numbers are selected randomly from the set $S = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10\}$ without replacement one by one. The probability that minimum of the two numbers is divisible by $3$ or maximum of the two numbers is divisible by $4$ , is 

A

$\frac{{23}}{{45}}$

B

$\frac{{37}}{{45}}$

C

$\frac{{16}}{{45}}$

D

$\frac{{19}}{{45}}$

Solution

$P=\frac{2 \times 19}{10 \times 9}=\frac{19}{45}$

favourable : $\{(3,4),(3,5), \ldots \ldots(3,10)$

${(6,7),(6,8), \ldots . .(6,10)} $

${(9,10)}$ ${(1,4),(2,4)} $
