1. An unbiased coin is tossed eight times. The 7. From a pack of 52 playing cards, face cards
probability of obtaining at least one head and tens are removed and kept aside then a
and at least one tail is: [JEE Main - 2017] card is drawn at random from the remaining
255 127 cards. If
(A) (B) A : The event that the card drawn is an ace
256 128
63 1 H : The event that the card drawn is a heart
(C) (D) S : The event that the card drawn is spade
64 2 then which of the following holds?
[Multiple Choice]
2. A die is thrown. Let A be the event that the (A) 9P(A) = 4P(H)
number obtained is greater than 3. Let B be
(B) P(S) = 4P(A  H)
the event that the number obtained is less
(C) 4P(H) = 3P(A  S)
than 5. Then P(A  B) is [AIEEE-2008]
(D) P(H) = 9P(A  S)

3. A card is drawn & replaced in an ordinary . Then find
pack of 52 playing cards. Minimum number 3
(i) P(A) (ii) P(B)
of times must a card be drawn so that there
is atleast an even chance of drawing a heart, (iii) P(A  Bc) (iv) P(Ac  B)
is
(A) 2 (B) 3 9. The probabilities of three events A, B and C
(C) 4 (D) more than four are given by
P(A) = 0.6, P(B) = 0.4 and P(C) = 0.5
4. There are three passengers on an airport If P(A  B) = 0.8, P(A  C) = 0.3,
shuttle bus that makes stops at four P(A  B  C) = 0.2, P(B  C) =  and
different hotels, probability that all three P(A  B  C) = , where 0.85    0.95,
passengers will stay at different hotels is then  lies in the interval
(A) 1/16 (B) 1/4 [JEE Main-2020]
(C) 3/8 (D) 3/4 (A) [0.35, 0.36] (B) [0.20, 0.25]
(C) [0.25, 0.35] (D) [0.36, 0.40]

4 blue counters are placed in a row in 10. Two decks of playing cards are well
random order. The probability that no two shuffled and 26 cards are randomly
blue counters are adjacent is distributed to a player. Then the probability
(A) 7/99 (B) 7/198 that the player gets all distinct cards is
(C) 5/42 (D) None 52
C 2  52 C26
