Question
The probability that Ayush passes the test is (4/11) and
the probability that Bhavna fails is (3/8). What is the probability that both get the same result?Solution
Probability that Ayush fails = 1 - (4/11) = (7/11)
Probability that Bhavna passes = 1 - (3/8) = (5/8)
Required probability = (4/11) × (5/8) + (7/11) × (3/8)
= (20/88) + (21/88) = (41/88)
