Let $A$ and $B$ be two independent events of a random experiment. If the probability that both $A$ and $B$ occur is $\frac{1}{6}$ and the probability that neither of them occur is $\frac{1}{3}$,then the probability of occurrence of $A$ is

  • A
    $0$ or $1$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{2}$ or $\frac{1}{4}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2}$ or $\frac{1}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{2}$ or $\frac{1}{7}$
