\begin{aligned} \text { Total no of selections } &=\begin{array}{c} ^{11}C_3 \end{array} \\ &=\frac{11 \times 10 \times 9}{6} \\ &=165 \end{aligned}

No of ways with common difference 1 = 9

No of ways with common difference 2 = 7

No of ways with common difference 3 = 5

No of ways with common difference 4 = 3

No of ways with common difference 5 = 1

\\ \text { Required probability }=\frac{1+3+5+7+9}{165} \\ \qquad \begin{aligned} &=\frac{25}{165}=\frac{5}{33} \end{aligned}
