Two players $A$ and $B$ alternatively toss $3$ coins simultaneously. The player who gets $2$ heads and $1$ tail first, wins the game. If the game continues until someone wins and if $A$ begins the game, the probability that $B$ wins the game is

  • A
    $\frac{24}{39}$
  • B
    $\frac{4}{7}$
  • C
    $\frac{15}{39}$
  • D
    $\frac{3}{7}$

Cards are drawn one after the other without replacement from a well-shuffled pack of cards until an ace card appears. If the probability that exactly $5$ cards are drawn before the first ace card appears is $\frac{4}{49}\left(\frac{p_1 \cdot p_2 \cdot p_3}{p_4 \cdot p_5 \cdot p_6}\right)$, where $p_i$ is prime for $i=1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6$, then $(\max \{p_i\} - \min \{p_i\}) = $

The probabilities that players $A$ and $B$ of a team are selected for the captaincy for a tournament are $0.6$ and $0.4$, respectively. If $A$ is selected as the captain, the probability that the team wins the tournament is $0.8$ and if $B$ is selected as the captain, the probability that the team wins the tournament is $0.7$. Then the probability, that the team wins the tournament, is:
