A fair die is thrown. If E is the event that 'the number appearing is a multiple of 3' and F be the event that the number appearing is even'. Then choose the correct option given below: |
$P(F)=\frac{1}{3}$ $P(E∪F)=\frac{1}{2}$ E and F are mutually disjoint events. E and F are independent events. |
$P(F)=\frac{1}{3}$ |
Given that E is the event that 'the number appearing is a multiple of 3' and (Possible cases. 3,6,9,12) F be the event that the number appearing is even' (Possible Case. 2,4,6,8,10,12) Then E∪F is the event such the number appeared should be even and multiple of 3. The total no. possibilities of such events are (6,12) So, P (E∪F) = (Total no. of favorable cases/ Exhaustive no. of cases) = 2/6 P (E∪F) = 1/3 |
