Correct Answer - B (b) Since, the set of three consecutive numbers from 1 to 20 are 123, 234, 345,…..,18, 19, 20 i.e., 18. P(numbers are consecutive) = 18 . 20 C 3 = 18 1140 = 3 190 P(numbers are consecutive) P(three numbers are not consecutive) = 1 − 3 190 = 187 190 P(three numbers are not consecutive)
