Cevap
The probability that the selected number is a multiple of 4 or 6, but not a multiple of 8, is .
To find the probability, determine the number of favorable outcomes out of 90 total outcomes. The number of multiples of 4 is 22, and the number of multiples of 6 is 15. The numbers that are multiples of both 4 and 6 are multiples of 12, of which there are 7. By inclusion-exclusion, the number of integers that are multiples of 4 or 6 is . Since all multiples of 8 are automatically multiples of 4, all 11 multiples of 8 in the range are included in these 30 numbers. Excluding the multiples of 8 leaves favorable integers. Thus, the probability is .
