A hash table has space for 100 records. What is the probability of collision before the table is 10% full?

A.

0.45

B.

0.5

C.

0.3

D.

0.34 (approximately)

 

Answer : A

Explanation :

If there is only one record, then the probability of a collision will be 1/100. If 2, then 2/100 etc., If 9 then 9/100. So, the required probability is, (1+2+3...9)/100 = 0.45.
