In a throw of coin what is the probability of getting tails.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Total number of cases = 52
Favourable cases = 2

Probability = 2/56 = 1/26

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
\text{Total cases =} ^{12}C_3 \\
= \frac{12*11*10}{3*2*1} = 220 \\
\text{Total cases of drawing same colour =} \\
^{5}C_3 + ^{4}C_3 + ^{3}C_3 \\
\frac{5*4}{2*1} + 4 + 1 = 15 \\

\text{Probability of same colur =} = \frac{15}{220}\\
= \frac{3}{44} \\

\text{Probability of not same colur =} \\
1-\frac{3}{44}\\ = \frac{41}{44}

\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
\text{Total cases =} ^{52}C_2 \\
= \frac{52*51}{2*1} = 1326 \\
\text{Total King cases =} ^{4}C_2 \\
= \frac{4*3}{2*1} = 6 \\

\text{Probability =} = \frac{6}{1326}\\
= \frac{1}{221} \\
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Total 4 cases = [HH, TT, TH, HT]
Favourable cases = [HH, TH, HT]
Please note we need atmost one tail, not atleast one tail.

So probability = 3/4

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Please remember that Maximum portability is 1.

So we can get total probability of non defective bulbs and subtract it form 1 to get total probability of defective bulbs.

So here we go,
Total cases of non defective bulbs
\begin{aligned}
^{16}C_2 = \frac{16*15}{2*1} = 120 \\
\text{total cases = } \\
^{20}C_2 = \frac{20*19}{2*1} = 190 \\
\text{probability = } \frac{120}{190} = \frac{12}{19} \\
\text{P of at least one defective = } 1- \frac{12}{19} \\
=\frac{7}{19}
\end{aligned}
