Answer Posted / mayank kumar

total numbers between 100 and 999 =900
number that have a digit 7 between 100 and 199 =19
similarly no. that have digit 7 between 200 and 699=5*19
number that have digit 7 between 700 and 799=100
number that have a digit 7 between 800 and 999 =2*19
so total number that have digit seven in them between 100 and 999 are=8*19+100 =252

so numbers that does not have 7 digit in them =900-252 =648

therefore required prob, p =648/900 = 0.72
