Let $A$ and $B$ are two independent events. The probability that both $A$ and $B$ occur together is $1/6$ and the probability that neither of them occurs is $1/3$. The probability of occurrence of $A$ is

  • A

    $0$ or $1$

  • B

    $\frac{1}{2}$ or $\frac{1}{3}$

  • C

    $\frac{1}{2}$ or $\frac{1}{4}$

  • D

    $\frac{1}{3}$ or $\frac{1}{4}$
