Let n and m be two integers such that n>m >0. If a bit string of length n is randomly selected, what is the probability of selecting a string in which thelast m bits are all 1?OOO None of these.

solution current answer is option is c the required probability = 2^n-m/2^n

There are exactly 365 students taking Algorithms this semester. Assume that each of these students is equally likely to be born on any of the 365 days of the year. For this problem, let’s assume that no one is born on February 29. Determine the probability that at most one student is born on June 15.
