what is the probability of divisibility of sum of first n number by n?
Read Solution (Total 5)
-
- 1/2
every alternate sum of first n natural numbers is divisible by the number
sum of first 'n'number=n(n+1)/2
For n=2,3,4,5,6,7,8,...., sum=3,6,10,15,21,28,36,...respectively
so probability=one among the two= 1/2 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(28) No(0)
- we know that the sum of first n number is n(n+1)/2.if n is even than the probability will be 0. and if n is odd than the probability will be 1. if we r taking for first n than it will be 1/2.

- 0.5
bcoz for odd its 1 and for even its 0 so overall probab = 1

- IT WAS GIVEN THAT N IS SUFFICIENTLY LARGE

- IF N IS LARGE i.e N(N+1)/2N WHICH IS (N+1)/2 WHICH CANT BE DETERMINED
