Let the middle digit be x. Then, 2x = 10 or x = 5.So, the number is either 253 or 352. Since the number increases on reversing the digits, so the hundred's digit is smaller than the unit's digit. Hence, required number = 253.
Two balls can be drawn from 18 balls in 18C2 Ways, ie 153 ways. One white from 8 white balls can be drawn in 8C1 = 8 ways and one black ball from 10 black can be drawn in 10C1 = 10 ways.∴ n(S) = 153, n(E) = 8 x 10 = 80∴ P(E) = 80/153
