A 3-digit number is to be formed by randomly selecting digits from the set (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0). What is the probablity that the number is less that 338?
-----------------------------------
# of numbers less than 338 = 337
# of 3-digit numbers: 999
---------------------------------
Probability the number is less than 338 = 337/999
