The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

The number is divisible by 2 only when its unit digit is 4 (the only even digit).
By symmetry, the last position is equally likely to hold any of the 7 given digits, so \(P(\text{last digit is } 4) = \frac{\text{number of 4s}}{7} = \frac{3}{7}\).
Answer: (4) \(\frac{3}{7}\)
