$A$ man is known to speak the truth $2$ out of $3$ times. If he throws a die and reports that it is $6$,then the probability that it is actually $5$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{3}{8}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{7}$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{7}$
  • D

In a test, a student either guesses, copies, or knows the answer to a multiple-choice question with four choices having one correct answer. The probability that he guesses the answer is $\frac{1}{3}$ and the probability that he copies it is $\frac{1}{12}$. The probability that his answer is correct given that he copied it is $\frac{1}{6}$. The probability that he knew the answer, given that he has correctly answered it, is

$A, B, C$ are mutually exclusive and exhaustive events of a random experiment and $E$ is an event that occurs in conjunction with one of the events $A, B, C$. The conditional probabilities of $E$ given the happening of $A, B, C$ are respectively $0.6, 0.3$ and $0.1$. If $P(A)=0.30$ and $P(B)=0.50$,then $P(C \mid E)=$

Given three identical bags each containing $10$ balls,whose colours are as follows:
RedBlueGreen
Bag $I$$3$$2$$5$
Bag $II$$4$$3$$3$
Bag $III$$5$$1$$4$

$A$ person chooses a bag at random and takes out a ball. If the ball is Red,the probability that it is from bag $I$ is $p$,and if the ball is Green,the probability that it is from bag $III$ is $q$,then the value of $\left(\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}\right)$ is:

Suppose we have four boxes $A, B, C$ and $D$ containing coloured marbles as given below:
Box Red White Black
$A$ $1$ $6$ $3$
$B$ $6$ $2$ $2$
$C$ $8$ $1$ $1$
$D$ $0$ $6$ $4$

One of the boxes has been selected at random and a single marble is drawn from it. If the marble is red,what is the probability that it was drawn from box $A$,box $B$,or box $C$?

$A$ manufacturing company of bulbs has $3$ units $A, B$ and $C$ which produce $25 \%$,$35 \%$ and $40 \%$ of the bulbs respectively. Out of the bulbs produced by $A, B, C$ units,$5 \%, 4 \%$ and $2 \%$ are defective respectively. If a bulb is chosen at random and found to be defective,then the probability that it is produced by unit $B$ is
