3) If boys and girls are equally likely, then out of 600 families of 3 children, the number of families having all girls is :


probability of a family having all girls = 1 / 2^3 = 1/8


 which is equal to 75 / 600


 


so 75 families.

4) One bag contains 4 white and 5 black balls. Another bad contains 6 white and 7 black balls. A ball is transferred from the first bag to the second bag. The probability that the ball drawn is white is :


 


Prob. of white ball being transferred = 4/9


Prob. of black ball being transferred = 5/9


 


Prob. of white ball drawn from 2nd bag -:::---->


Case 1 white transferred:


7 white 7 black so 1/2


Case 2 black transferred :


6 white 8 black so 6/14 = 3/7


 


Total prob = (4/9) (1/2)    +  (5/9)( 3/7)


= 2/9 + 5/21 =  14 + 15 / 63


 = 29/63

second = 2/7

in a leap year there are 52 full weeks and 2 days extra
these 2 days can be
MT , TW , WT,TF ,FS, SS , SM
SO TO HAVE 53 SUNDAYS PROBABILITY = 2/7
