Let A , B , C be three events and A - , B - , C - be their corresponding complementary event. If the probabilities of events B ,   A ∩ B ∩ C - and A - ∩ B ∩ C - are 5 6 , 1 2 and 1 4 respectively, then the probability of the event B ∩ C is
Options
- A1 12
- B1 4
- C1 6
- D1 3
Correct answer
A. 1 12
Step-by-step solution
From the venn diagram, note that P B = P B ∩ C + P A ∩ B ∩ C - + P A - ∩ B ∩ C - Hence, P B ∩ C = 5 6 - 1 2 - 1 4 = 1 12
