In a competition,$A, B$,and $C$ are participating. The probability that $A$ wins is twice that of $B$,and the probability that $B$ wins is twice that of $C$. Then,the probability that $A$ loses is:

  • A
    $\frac{1}{7}$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{7}$
  • C
    $\frac{4}{7}$
  • D

When a certain biased die is rolled,a particular face occurs with probability $\frac{1}{6}-x$ and its opposite face occurs with probability $\frac{1}{6}+x$. All other faces occur with probability $\frac{1}{6}$. Note that opposite faces sum to $7$ in any die. If $0 < x < \frac{1}{6}$,and the probability of obtaining a total sum of $7$ when such a die is rolled twice is $\frac{13}{96}$,then the value of $x$ is:

For independent events $A_1, A_2, \dots, A_n$,$P(A_i) = \frac{1}{i + 1}$ for $i = 1, 2, \dots, n$. Then the probability that none of the events will occur is:
