− | Suppose the set <math>S</math> denotes <math>S = \{1,2,3 \cdots n\}</math>. Then, a subset of length <math>1<k<n</math> is chosen. All even digits in the subset <math>k</math> are then are put into group <math>k_1</math>, and the odd digits are put in <math>k_2</math>. Then, one number is selected at random from either <math>k_1</math> or <math>k_2</math> with equal chances. What is the probability that the number selected is a perfect square, given <math>n=4</math>?
