  4. All numbers from 1 to 150 (in decimal system) are written in base 6 notation. How many of these will contain zero's?

  5. I roll a die 4 times. In how many outcomes do we have two throws have the same number and the other two something different?

  6. A bag contains 4 red and 3 black balls. A second bag contains 2 red and 3 black balls. One bag is selected at random. If from the selected bag one ball is drawn, then what is the probability that the ball drawn is red?

  8. Tough Questions

  9. Sum of three Whole numbers a, b and c is 10. How many ordered triplets (a, b, c) exist?

  10. a, b, c are three distinct integers from 2 to 10 (both inclusive). Exactly one of ab, bc and ca is odd. abc is a multiple of 4. The arithmetic mean of a and b is an integer and so is the arithmetic mean of a, b and c. How many such triplets are possible (unordered triplets)?
