In a throw of coin what is the probability of getting tails.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Total number of balls = (8 + 7 + 6) = 21
Let E = event that the ball drawn is neither blue nor green =e vent that the ball drawn is red.
Therefore, n(E) = 8.
P(E) = 8/21.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Total number of cases = 52
Favourable cases = 2

Probability = 2/56 = 1/26

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Total number of cases = 6*6 = 36

Favourable cases = [(1,2),(1,4),(1,6),(2,1),(2,2),(2,3),(2,4),(2,5),(2,6),(3,2),(3,4),(3,6),(4,1),(4,2),(4,3),(4,4),(4,5),(4,6),(5,2),(5,4),(5,6),(6,1),(6,2),(6,3),(6,4),(6,5),(6,6)] = 27

So Probability = 27/36 = 3/4

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let A = Event that A speaks the truth
B = Event that B speaks the truth

Then P(A) = 75/100 = 3/4
P(B) = 80/100 = 4/5

P(A-lie) = 1-3/4 = 1/4
P(B-lie) = 1-4/5 = 1/5

Now
A and B contradict each other =
[A lies and B true] or [B true and B lies]
= P(A).P(B-lie) + P(A-lie).P(B)
[Please note that we are adding at the place of OR]
= (3/5*1/5) + (1/4*4/5) = 7/20
= (7/20 * 100) % = 35%

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Total number of cases = 52

Total face cards = 12 [favourable cases]



So probability = 12 /52 = 3/13
