A die is thrown three times. Events A and B are defined as below |
1/6 2/3 3/4 1/2 |
1/6 |
The correct answer is Option (1) → 1/6 $\text{P(B) = P(4 on first throw) × P(5 on second throw)}$ $=\frac{1}{6}×\frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{36}$ $\text{P(A|B)=P(6 on third throw)}$ $=\frac{1}{6}$ $P(A∩B)=P(B)×P(A|B)=\frac{1}{36}×\frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{216}$ $⇒P(A|B)=\frac{P(A∩B)}{P(B)}=\frac{\frac{1}{216}}{\frac{1}{36}}=\frac{1}{6}$ |
