One card is drawn from a pack of 52 cards, each of the 52 cards being equally likely to be drawn find the probability the card drawn is red.

Correct Answer: (1/2)^11

Explanation:

Probability of occurrence of an event, 

P(E) = Number of favorable outcomes/Numeber of possible outcomes = n(E)/n(S)

? Probability of getting head in one coin = ½, 

? Probability of not getting head in one coin = 1- ½ = ½, 

Hence, 

All the 11 tosses are independent of each other.

? Required probability of getting only 2 times heads = 1 2 2 × 1 2 9 = 1 2 11

Correct Answer: 1/30

Correct Answer: 1/2

Explanation:

P(odd) = P (even) = 1 2 1(because there are 50 odd and 50 even numbers)

 

Sum or the three numbers can be odd only under the following 4 scenarios:

 

Odd + Odd + Odd =  1 2 * 1 2 * 1 2=  1 8

 

Odd + Even + Even =  1 2 * 1 2 * 1 2= 1 8

 

Even + Odd + Even =  1 2 * 1 2 * 1 2= 1 8

 

Even + Even + Odd =  1 2 * 1 2 * 1 2 =  1 8

 

Other combinations of odd and even will give even numbers. 

 

Adding up the 4 scenarios above:

 

=  1 8+  1 8+ 1 8+  1 8 =  4 8 =  1 2

Correct Answer: 1/2

Explanation:

Here, s={H,T} and E={H}
P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 1/2

Correct Answer: 0.043

Explanation:

 Vowels are A I A I O, 

 

 C    A   S    T   I    G   A    T   I    O   N

 

(O) (E) (O) (E) (O) (E) (O) (E) (O) (E) (O)

 

So there are 5 even places in which five vowels can be arranged and in rest of 6 places 6 constants can be arranged as follows :

 

n ( E ) = 5 P 5 2 ! * 2 ! ( A , I a r e 2 t i m e s ) * 6 P 6 2 ! ( T i s 2 t i m e s ) = 21600

 

n ( S ) = 11 ! 2 ! * 2 ! * 2 ! ( A , I a r e 2 t i m e s ) = 4989600

 

21600 4989600 = 0 . 043

Correct Answer: 3 is adjacent to 5

Explanation:

If 1 is adjacent to 2, 4 and 6 then either 3 or 5 lies opposite to 1. So, the numbers 3 and 5 cannot lie opposite to each other. Hence, 3 is adjacent to 5 (necessarily).

Correct Answer: 15

Explanation:

In a usual dice, the sum of the numbers on any two opposite faces is always 7. Thus, 1 is opposite 6, 2 is opposite 5 and 3 is opposite 4.

 

Consequently, when 4, 3, 1 and 5 are the numbers on the top faces, then 3, 4, 6 and 2 respectively are the numbers on the face touching the ground. The total of these numbers = 3 + 4 + 6 + 2 = 15.

Correct Answer: 4 is adjacent to 6

Explanation:

If 1 is adjacent to 2, 3 and 5, then either 4 or 6 lies opposite to 1. So, the numbers 4 and 6 cannot lie opposite to each other. Hence, 4 necessarily lies adjacent to 6.

Correct Answer: 64

Explanation:

We know that Cubes with no surface painted can be find using  x - 2 3, where x is number of cuttings. Here x=6.

  ? 6 - 2 3 = 64

Correct Answer: 2 is adjacent to 4 and 6

Explanation:

If 1 is opposite to 5 and 2 is opposite to 3, then 4 definitely lies opposite to 6. Therefore, 2 cannot lie opposite to any of the two numbers - 4 or 6. Hence, 2 necessarily lies adjacent to both 4 and 6.
