Practicing Success
The probabilities of a student getting I, II and III division in an examination are respectively $\frac{1}{10}, \frac{3}{5}$ and $\frac{1}{4}.$ The probability that the student fail in the examination is |
$\frac{197}{200}$ $\frac{27}{200}$ $\frac{83}{100}$ none of these |
none of these |
A denote the event getting I; B denote the event getting II; C denote the event getting III; and D denote the event getting fail. Obviously, these four events are mutually exclusive and exhaustive, therefore P(A)+ P(B)+ P(C)+ P(D) = 1 ⇒ P(D) = 1 − 0.95 = 0.05. |
