Question
The probability that Tushar passes is (5/12) and the
probability that Radhika fails is (2/5). Find the probability that both have the same result.Solution
Probability that Tushar fails = 1 - (5/12) = (7/12)
Probability that Radhika passes = 1 - (2/5) = (3/5)
Required probability = (5/12) × (3/5) + (7/12) × (2/5)
= (15/60) + (14/60) = (29/60)
