Three six-faced fair dice are thrown together. The probability that the sum of the numbers appearing on the dice is $k$ $(3 \le k \le 8)$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{(k - 1)(k - 2)}{216}$
  • B
    $\frac{k(k - 1)}{216}$
  • C
    $\frac{k^2}{216}$
  • D
    None of these

There are three bags $B_1$,$B_2$,and $B_3$ containing $2$ Red and $3$ White,$5$ Red and $5$ White,and $3$ Red and $2$ White balls respectively. $A$ ball is drawn from bag $B_1$ and placed in bag $B_2$,then a ball is drawn from bag $B_2$ and placed in bag $B_3$,then a ball is drawn from bag $B_3$. The number of ways in which this process can be completed,if the same colour balls are used in the first and second transfers (assume all balls to be distinct),is

If two numbers $p$ and $q$ are chosen randomly from the set $\{1, 2, 3, 4\}$,one by one,with replacement,then the probability of getting $p^2 > 4q$ is

$A$ and $B$ each select one number at random from the distinct numbers $1, 2, 3, \ldots, n$. The probability that the number selected by $A$ is less than the number selected by $B$ is $\frac{1009}{2019}$. The probability that the number selected by $B$ is the number immediately next to the number selected by $A$ is:

Let $|X|$ denote the number of elements in set $X$. Let $S = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6\}$ be a sample space,where each element is equally likely to occur. If $A$ and $B$ are independent events associated with $S$,then the number of ordered pairs $(A, B)$ such that $1 \leq |B| < |A|$ equals:

Three numbers are selected at random from the set ${1, 2, 3, \dots, 8}$ without replacement. Given that the minimum of the selected numbers is $3$ and the maximum is $6$, what is the probability that the third number is $4$ or $5$?
