In a box, there are 8 red, 7 blue and 6 green balls. One ball is picked up randomly. What is the probability that it is neither blue nor green?

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Total cases are = 2*2*2 = 8, which are as follows
[TTT, HHH, TTH, THT, HTT, THH, HTH, HHT]

Favoured cases are = [TTH, THT, HTT, TTT] = 4

So required probability = 4/8 = 1/2

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Number greater than 5 is 6, so only 1 number
Total cases of dice = [1,2,3,4,5,6]

So probability = 1/6

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Total number of cases = 6*6 = 36

Favoured cases = [(3,6), (4,5), (6,3), (5,4)] = 4

So probability = 4/36 = 1/9

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
\text{Total cases =} ^{12}C_3 \\
= \frac{12*11*10}{3*2*1} = 220 \\
\text{Total cases of drawing same colour =} \\
^{5}C_3 + ^{4}C_3 + ^{3}C_3 \\
\frac{5*4}{2*1} + 4 + 1 = 15 \\

\text{Probability of same colur =} = \frac{15}{220}\\
= \frac{3}{44} \\

\text{Probability of not same colur =} \\
1-\frac{3}{44}\\ = \frac{41}{44}

\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
\text{Total cases =} ^{52}C_2 \\
= \frac{52*51}{2*1} = 1326 \\
\text{Total King cases =} ^{4}C_2 \\
= \frac{4*3}{2*1} = 6 \\

\text{Probability =} = \frac{6}{1326}\\
= \frac{1}{221} \\
\end{aligned}
