उत्तर

There are 9 cards from which one card is drawn. 

Total number of elementary events = n(S) = 9  

From numbers 2 to 10, there are 3 numbers which are multiples of 3 i.e. 3, 6, 9 

Favorable number of events = n(E) = 3 

Probability of selecting a card with a multiple of 3 = `(n(E))/(n(S)) = 3/9 = 1/3`
