In a throw of dice what is the probability of getting number greater than 5

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Total 4 cases = [HH, TT, TH, HT]
Favourable cases = [HH, TH, HT]
Please note we need atmost one tail, not atleast one tail.

So probability = 3/4

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Two cards are drawn together from a pack of 52 cards. The probability that one is a spade and one is a heart, is:

Let sample space be S
\begin{aligned}
\text{then, n(S) = }^{52} C _2 \\
=> \frac{52 \times 51}{ 2 \times 1} = 1326 \\
\text {let E be event of getting 1 spade and 1 heart} \\
\text{So, n(E) = ways of getting 1 spade or 1 heart out of 13} \\
= ^{13}C_1 \times ^{13}C_1 \\
= 13 \times 13 \\
= 169 \\
\text{So, p(E) = }\frac{n(E)}{n(S)} \\
= \frac{169}{1326} = \frac{13}{102}
\end{aligned}

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 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:

\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}
