If the first two raw moments of X are equal to zero, then P(X = 0) is equal to:

This question was previously asked in
SSC CGL 2023 (Tier-II) Paper 1 Previous Year Paper (26-Oct-2023) (Shift-1)
The correct answer is

1

If the first two raw moments of X are zero, it indicates that the random variable X is centered around 0. The probability P(X = 0) is 1 because X is always 0 in this case.
