उत्तर

`1/25`

Explanation:

Since a 3-digit number cannot start with digit 0.

The hundredth place can have any of the 4 digits.

Now, the tens and units place can have all the 5 digits.

Therefore, the total possible 3-digit numbers are 4 × 5 × 5

i.e., 100.

The total possible 3 digit numbers having all digits same = 4

Hence, P(3-digit number with same digits) = `4/100 = 1/25`.
