A factory has two Machines-I and II. Machine-I produces 60% of items and Machine-II produces 40% of the items of the total output. Further 2% of the items produced by Machine-I are defective whereas 4% produced by Machine-II are defective. If an item is drawn at random what is the probability that it is defective?

For a sports meet, a winners’ stand comprising of three wooden blocks is in the form as shown in figure. There are six different colours available to choose from and three of the wooden blocks is to be painted such that no two of them has the same colour. Find the probability that the smallest block is to be painted in red, where red is one of the six colours.

Find the probability that (i) she will get atleast one of the two jobs (ii) she will get only one of the two jobs.

Two thirds of students in a class are boys and rest girls. It is known that the probability of a girl getting a first grade is 0.85 and that of boys is 0.70. Find the probability that a student chosen at random will get first grade marks.

An advertising executive is studying television viewing habits of married men and women during prime time hours. Based on the past viewing records he has determined that during prime time wives are watching television 60% of the time. It has also been determined that when the wife is watching television, 40% of the time the husband is also watching. When the wife is not watching the television, 30% of the time the husband is watching the television. Find the probability that
(i) the husband is watching the television during the prime time of television
(ii) if the husband is watching the television, the wife is also watching the television.

When a pair of fair dice is rolled, what are the probabilities of getting the sum (i)7 (ii) 7 or 9 (iii) 7 or 12?

A consulting firm rents car from three agencies such that 50% from agency L, 30% from agency M and 20% from agency N. If 90% of the cars from L, 70% of cars from M and 60% of the cars from N are in good conditions
(i) what is the probability that the firm will get a car in good condition?
(ii) if a car is in good condition, what is probability that it has come from agency N?
