there are two ways that The combination of digits that give multiples of 3
Can you now finish the problem ..........
The combination of digits that give multiples of 3 are (1,2,3) and (2,3,4)
can you finish the problem........
The combination of digits that give multiples of 3 are (1,2,3) and (2,3,4) . The number of ways to choose three digits out of four is 4. Therefore, the probability is \(\frac{1}{2}\)
