The correct answer is:
0.50

(0.50)

n(E 2 ) = arrangement of 7, 1 and 2 or = = 36

n(E 1 E 2 ) = both zero should be in a row or a column

= (number of ways of arranging of (1, 0, 0) = 3 and arrangement of row = 3

total = 9

in same way for (1, 0, 0) for columns number of ways will be = 9

total ways =18
