Question 1 of 5
1. Question
Which of the following methods can enhance microbial plastic degradation?
Correct
Answer: B
Explanation:
Consider,
Because, Total numbers = 10000 & 4 digits are there in each of these numbers.
therefore, Total digits = 40000
Because, every digit has been used equal number of times in this arrangement.
therefore, each digit has came = 40000/10 = 4000 times
Now, remove extra zeroes.
So, zero will appear for: 4000 – 4 – 27 – 180 – 900 = 2889 times Hence, option (b) is the correct answer
