Answer: 0.3439

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of digits : 10

The number of digits except zero =9

The probability of selecting non-zero number :-

[tex]\dfrac{9}{10}=0.9[/tex]

Then, the probability that one such phone number , the last four digits do not include any zero:-

[tex]\text{P(no zero )}=(0.9)^4[/tex]

Then , the probability that for one such phone​ number, the last four digits include at least one 0:-

[tex]\text{P(at-least one zero )}=1-(0.9)^4=0.3439[/tex]

Hence, the probability that for one such phone​ number, the last four digits include at least one 0 is 0.3439 .
