pack of 52 cards.
SOLUTION
PROBLEM:
There are 5 green 7 red balls. Two balls are selected one by one without
replacement. Find the probability that first is green and second is red.
SOLUTION
PROBLEM:
What is the probability of getting a sum of 7 when two dice are thrown?
SOLUTION
PROBLEM:
A coin is thrown 3 times .what is the probability that atleast one head is
obtained?
SOLUTION
Sample space = [HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, TTH, THT, HTT, TTT]
Total number of ways = 2 × 2 × 2 = 8. Fav. Cases = 7
P (A) = 7/8
OR
P (of getting at least one head) = 1 – P (no head)⇒ 1 – (1/8) = 7/8
ANSWER:
7/8

'4'?
SOLUTION
PROBLEM:
A problem is given to three persons P, Q, R whose respective chances of
solving it are 2/7, 4/7, 4/9 respectively. What is the probability that the problem
is solved?
SOLUTION
PROBLEM:
Find the probability of getting two heads when five coins are tossed.
SOLUTION
Number of ways of getting two heads = 5C2 = 10. Total Number of ways = 25 =
32
P (two heads) = 10/32 = 5/16
ANSWER:
5/16
STATISTICS AND PROBABILITY 11
PROBLEM:
What is the probability of getting a sum of 22 or more when four dice are
thrown?
SOLUTION
Total number of ways = 64 = 1296. Number of ways of getting a sum 22 are
6,6,6,4 = 4! / 3! = 4
6,6,5,5 = 4! / 2!2! = 6.
Number of ways of getting a sum 23 is 6,6,6,5 = 4! / 3! = 4.
Number of ways of getting a sum 24 is 6,6,6,6 = 1.
Fav. Number of cases = 4 + 6 + 4 + 1 = 15 ways.
P (getting a sum of 22 or more) = 15/1296 = 5/432
ANSWER
5/432
STATISTICS AND PROBABILITY 12

PROBLEM:
Find the probability that a leap year has 52 Sundays.
SOLUTION
A leap year can have 52 Sundays or 53 Sundays.
In a leap year, there are 366 days out of which there are 52 complete weeks &
remaining 2 days.
Now, these two days can be (Sat, Sun) (Sun, Mon) (Mon, Tue) (Tue, Wed) (Wed,
Thur) (Thur, Friday) (Friday, Sat).
So there are total 7 cases out of which (Sat, Sun) (Sun, Mon) are two
favorable cases. So, P (53 Sundays) = 2 / 7
ANSWER:
2/7
STATISTICS AND PROBABILITY 15
PROBLEM:
Fifteen people sit around a circular table. What are odds against two particular
people sitting together?
SOLUTION
15 persons can be seated in 14! Ways. No. of ways in which two particular
people sit together is 13! × 2!
The probability of two particular persons sitting together 13!2! / 14! = 1/7
Odds against the event = 6 : 1
ANSWER:
1/7
