  • A
    $\frac{4}{19}$
  • B
    $\frac{55}{3} \left( \frac{2}{3} \right)^{11}$
  • C
    $\frac{428 \times ^{12}C_3}{3^{11}}$
  • D

For three events $A, B$ and $C$,$P(\text{Exactly one of } A \text{ or } B \text{ occurs}) = P(\text{Exactly one of } B \text{ or } C \text{ occurs}) = P(\text{Exactly one of } C \text{ or } A \text{ occurs}) = \frac{1}{4}$ and $P(\text{All the three events occur simultaneously}) = \frac{1}{16}$. Then the probability that at least one of the events occurs is:

Three numbers are selected at random from the set ${1, 2, 3, \dots, 8}$ without replacement. Given that the minimum of the selected numbers is $3$ and the maximum is $6$, what is the probability that the third number is $4$ or $5$?

Let $A, B$ and $C$ be three events such that the probability that exactly one of $A$ and $B$ occurs is $(1-k)$,the probability that exactly one of $B$ and $C$ occurs is $(1-2k)$,the probability that exactly one of $C$ and $A$ occurs is $(1-k)$ and the probability that all $A, B$ and $C$ occur simultaneously is $k^2$,where $0 < k < 1$. Then the probability that at least one of $A, B$ and $C$ occurs is:

The probability that a randomly chosen $2 \times 2$ matrix with all the entries from the set of first $10$ primes is singular,is equal to

$A$ computer program has two modules $X$ and $Y$ and errors in them occur independently. $X$ has an error with probability $0.1$ and $Y$ has an error with probability $0.3$. If an error in $X$ alone causes the program to crash with probability $0.5$, an error in $Y$ alone causes the program to crash with probability $0.7$, and an error in both $X$ and $Y$ causes the program to crash with probability $0.8$, then the probability that the program crashes is
