  1. Question 1 of 10
    Find the probability of not getting a face card when a card is drawn from a well shuffled deck of 52 cards.
  2. Question 2 of 10
    Number of red, green and blue balls in a bag is (x+1), x and (x+3) respectively. If the probability of drawing a red and a green ball one after another and without replacement is 1/6, then find the probability of drawing a green ball.
  3. Question 3 of 10
    A bag contains 25 marbles out of which 10 are white and rest are red and black marbles in the ratio of 3:2 respectively. If two marbles are drawn from the bag one after another and without replacement then find the probability of getting a red and a white marble.
  4. Question 4 of 10
    Anushka has two buckets P and Q. Bucket P contains 6 green and 8 blue balloons. Bucket Q contains 6 green and 6 blue balloons. One balloon is drawn from one of the buckets chosen at random. What is the probability that the balloon drawn is blue?
  5. Question 5 of 10
    A bag contains (2x+y) red balls, 32 black balls and (3x−y) yellow balls. The probability of picking a red ball at random is 4/13 while the probability of picking a yellow ball at random is 1/13. Find the value of (x+y).
  6. Question 6 of 10
    Bag A contains 7 White and 8 Black balls, while Bag B contains 6 White and 5 Black balls. If 5 balls are drawn at random from each bag, find the product of the probability that 3 White and 2 Black balls are drawn from Bag A and 2 White and 3 Black balls are drawn from Bag B.
  7. Question 7 of 10
    A bag contains 10 blue, 8 green and 12 white balls. If 2 balls are picked without replacement from the bag at random, then find the probability that the first ball is blue and the second ball is either green or white.
  8. Question 8 of 10
    Bag A contains 3 white and 5 black balls whereas bag B contains 8 white and 4 black balls. If all the balls from given two bags are mixed into a bigger bag and after that two balls are drawn at random, then find the probability that both the balls are black in colour.
  9. Question 9 of 10
    Probability of Rohan, David and Heera speaking truth is 1/4, 4/7 and 2/5 respectively. Find the probability that at most one of them speaks truth.
  10. Question 10 of 10
