Probability of solving specific problem independently by $A$ and $B$ are $\frac{1}{2}$ and $\frac{1}{3}$ respectively. If both try to solve the problem independently, find the probability that exactly one of them problem
Given that the events $A$ and $B$ are such that $P(A)=\frac{1}{2}, P(A \cup B)=\frac{3}{5}$ and $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})=p .$ Find $p$ if they are mutually exclusive.
In a class of $60$ students, $30$ opted for $NCC$ , $32$ opted for $NSS$ and $24$ opted for both $NCC$ and $NSS$. If one of these students is selected at random, find the probability that The student has opted neither $NCC$ nor $NSS$.
Twelve tickets are numbered $1$ to $12$. One ticket is drawn at random, then the probability of the number to be divisible by $2$ or $3$, is
The chance of an event happening is the square of the chance of a second event but the odds against the first are the cube of the odds against the second. The chances of the events are
