Let $A$ and $B$ be independent events such that $P(A)=p$ and $P(B)=2p$. The largest value of $p$, for which $P(\text{exactly one of } A, B \text{ occurs}) = \frac{5}{9}$, is:

  • A
    $\frac{1}{3}$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{9}$
  • C
    $\frac{4}{9}$
  • D
    $\frac{5}{12}$

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:

If $A$ and $B$ are independent events of a random experiment such that $P(A \cap B) = \frac{1}{6}$ and $P(\bar{A} \cap \bar{B}) = \frac{1}{3}$,then $P(A)$ is equal to (Here,$\bar{E}$ is the complement of the event $E$)

Let a computer program generate only the digits $0$ and $1$ to form a string of binary numbers. The probability of occurrence of $0$ at even places is $\frac{1}{2}$ and the probability of occurrence of $0$ at odd places is $\frac{1}{3}$. Then the probability that $'10'$ is followed by $'01'$ is equal to:

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
