1. An unbiased coin is tossed 6 times. The probability that third head appears on the
sixth trial is
3. A fair dice is thrown six times, it being known that each time a different digit is
shown. The probability that a sum of 12 will be obtained in the first three throws is
4. Five different marbles are placed in 5 different boxes randomly. Then the probability
that exactly two boxes remain empty is (each box can hold any number of marbles)
5. If A and B are two events, then probability that exactly one of them occurs is given by
a) P A P B 2 P B
b) P A B P A B
c) P A B P A B
d) P A P B 2 P A B
6. A bag initially contains 1 red and 2 blue balls. An experiment consisting of selecting a
ball at random, noticing its colour and replacing it together with an additional ball of
the same colour. If three such trails are made, then
c) probability that all the drawn balls are red given that all the drawn balls are of
same colour is 0.2

12. Two dice are rolled together. One of the dice shows 3. If the probability that the
product of the numbers appearing on the two dice being a multiple of four is
p
p, q are coprimes then q – p =
q
13. Suppose A and B are two events with P A 0.5 and P A B 0.8 . Let P(B) = p if A and
B are mutually exclusive, and P(B) =q if A and B are independent events. Then the
value of q / p is
14. Three numbers are chosen at random without replacement from {1,2,……….10} . The
probability that the minimum of the chosen numbers is 3, or their maximum is 7, is
p/q where p,q are coprimes then number of positive integral factors of p is
15. If two events A and B are such that P AC =0.3, P B 0.4 and P A B C 0.5 then
8 P B / A B C = -----
16. Fair die A has 4 red and 2 white faces whereas another fair die B has 2 red and 4
white faces. A coin is flipped once. If it shows a head, the game continues by
throwing die A. If it shows tail the game continues by throwing die B. If the
probability that die A is used is 32/33 when it is given that red turns up every time
in first n throws with any die then find the value of n.
17. A box contains 24 identical balls of which 12 are white and 12 are black. Balls are
drawn at random from the box one at a time with replacement. The probability that a
white ball is drawn for the 4 th time on the 7th draw is p/q where p,q are coprimes
then the value of p is
18. If the probability of getting at least one head is at least 0.8 in n trails with a fair coin
then least value of n is
19. Let S= {1, 2, 3, …………,n}. From all mappings that map from S to S one mapping is
selected at random. Probability that it is one – one is 3/32, then n = ----------
20. A bag contains n+1 coins. It is known that one of these coins shows heads on both
sides, whereas the other coins are fair. One coin is selected at random and tossed. If
the probability that toss results in heads is 7/12, then the value of n is
