Not mutually exclusive.
Explanation of Solution
Given information :
Selecting a number at radom from 1 to 100, and getting a number divisible by 5 or a number divisible by 10.
Two events can be mutually exclusive if there is no common outcome of the both events. Whereas if there is any common outcome then the events becomes not mutually exclusive events.
Here selecting a random number may be divisible by 5 or 10.
Hence they may have common outcome therefore these events are not mutually exclusive.
