Two persons $A$ and $B$ play a game by throwing two dice. If the sum of the numbers appeared on the two dice is even, $A$ will get $\frac{1}{2}$ point and $B$ will get $\frac{1}{2}$ point. If the sum is odd, $A$ will get one point and $B$ will get no point. The arithmetic mean of the random variable of the number of points of $A$ is

The range of a random variable $X$ is $\{1, 2, 3, \ldots\}$ and $P(X=x) = \frac{c^x}{x!}$ for $x = 1, 2, 3, \ldots$. Then the value of $c$ is

In a meeting,$60 \%$ of the members favour and $40 \%$ oppose a certain proposal. $A$ member is selected at random. We define a random variable $X$ such that $X=0$ if the member opposes the proposal and $X=1$ if the member is in favour. Then,$\text{Var}(X) = $
