Vedclass · Answer

(A) Let $P(A), P(B),$ and $P(C)$ be the probabilities of students $A, B,$ and $C$ solving the problem respectively.$P(A) = \frac{1}{2}, P(B) = \frac{1}{3}, P(C) = \frac{1}{4}$.The probability that the problem is not solved by $A$ is $P(A') = 1 - \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{2}$.The probability that the problem is not solved by $B$ is $P(B') = 1 - \frac{1}{3} = \frac{2}{3}$.The probability that the problem is not solved by $C$ is $P(C') = 1 - \frac{1}{4} = \frac{3}{4}$.The probability that the problem is not solved by any of them is $P(	ext{none}) = P(A') 	imes P(B') 	imes P(C') = \frac{1}{2} 	imes \frac{2}{3} 	imes \frac{3}{4} = \frac{6}{24} = \frac{1}{4}$.The probability that the problem is solved is $P(	ext{solved}) = 1 - P(	ext{none}) = 1 - \frac{1}{4} = \frac{3}{4}$.

$A$ problem in Mathematics is given to three students $A, B, C$ and their respective probabilities of solving the problem are $\frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{3},$ and $\frac{1}{4}$. What is the probability that the problem is solved?
