Long Questions:
1 A card is drawn from a well shuffled pack of playing cards, what is the probability of
getting a card is a spade or a king?
2 Two unbiased dice are tossed simultaneously, find the probability that the sum of numbers
on the upper face of dice is 9 or 12.
3 The lottery tickets are numbered from 1 to 20. The tickets having the numbers in the
multiple of 3 or 5 bears the price. If one ticket is purchased then what is the probability that
it bears the price?
4 If A and B are any two events and 2𝑃(𝐴) = 3𝑃(𝐵) = 4𝑃(𝐴 ∩ 𝐵) = then find 𝑃(𝐴 ∪ 𝐵).
5 If A,B,C are three mutually exclusive events and 3𝑃(𝐴) = 2𝑃(𝐵) = 𝑃(𝐶) = then find
the value of 𝑃(𝐴 ∪ 𝐵 ∪ 𝐶).
6 If A and B are independent events then prove that 𝐴 & 𝐵 are also independent events.
7 If 𝑃(𝐴) = , 𝑃(𝐵) = and 𝑃(𝐴 ∪ 𝐵) = , find the value of 𝑃(𝐴/𝐵) and 𝑃(𝐵/𝐴).
8 If 𝑃(𝐴) = , 𝑃(𝐵) = and A and B are independent events then find the values of:
𝑃(𝐴 ∪ 𝐵 )
