Example 3.3. (a) Among the digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 at first one is chosen and then a second selection is made among the remaining four digits. Assuming that all twenty possible outcomes have equal probabilities, find the probability that an odd digit will be selected (i) the first time, (ii) the second time, and (iii) both times. (b) From 25 tickets, marked with first 25 numerals, one is drawn at random. Find the chance that (i) it is multiple of 5 or 7, and (ii) it is a multiple of 3 or 7.
