If A, B, C are three mutually exclusive and exhaustive events of an experiment such that P(A)=2 P(B)=3 P(C) , then P(B) is equal to
Options
- A1 11
- B2 11
- C3 11
- D4 11
Correct answer
C. 3 11
Step-by-step solution
A, B, C are mutually exclusive and exhaustive events. aligned P(A B)=P(B C) =P(A C)=0 &=P(A B C) and P(A)+P(B)+P(C) &=1 2 P(B)+P(B)+ 2 3 P(B) &=1 [ & P(A)=2 P(B), 2 P(B)=3 P(C)] &= 11 P(B) 3 =1 P(B) &= 3 11 aligned
