First six positive integers are 1,2,3,4,5,6.
Therefore, Three numbers are selected at random without replacement so, total no. of ways 6C3=20.
Let, x denote the larger of three numbers.
So, x can take values 3,4,5,6.
p(x=3)=120
p(x=4)=320
p(x=5)=620
p(x=6)=1020
Refer the tabular column:
mean=∑xp(x)
=320+1220+3020+6020
=15020=5.25
Variance =∑x2p(x)−(∑xp(x))2
=(56720)−(10520)2
=28.35−27.56=0.79.
