I have route to 155.1.146.6 from my route table: route table looks like this->

R5# show ip route
 O IA 155.1.146.0 [110/65] via 150.1.0.4, 00:01:26, Serial0/0/0
                    [110/65] via 150.1.0.1, 00:01:26, Serial0/0/0

R5#show ip route 155.1.146.6
Routing entry for 155.1.146.0/24
  Known via "ospf 1", distance 110, metric 65, type inter area
  Last update from 150.1.0.4 on Serial0/0/0, 00:04:06 ago
  Routing Descriptor Blocks:
    150.1.0.4, from 160.1.4.4, 00:04:06 ago, via Serial0/0/0
      Route metric is 65, traffic share count is 1
  * 150.1.0.1, from 160.1.1.1, 00:04:06 ago, via Serial0/0/1
      Route metric is 65, traffic share count is 1

1. what happens with OSPF path selection to destination network when
we have multiple equal costs...which path it selects in my case? if it
selected Serial0/0/1.. why it did not picked even Serial0/0/0 has
equal cost.
2. Do i need to use max-paths command to load maximum-paths to
loadbalance between two interfaces?
