(a) 2 digit positive integers which are multiples of 3 are 12, 15, 18, ... , 99. Thus, there are 30 such integers.

(b) 2-digit positive integers are 10, 11, 12, ... , 99. Thus, there are 90 such numbers. Since out of these, 30 numbers are multiple of 3, therefore, the probability that a randomly chosen positive 2-digit integer is a multiple of 3, is 30/90 = 1/3.
