If P(A)=2/5,\ P(B)=3/(10) and P(AnnB)=1/...

If `P(A)=2/5,\ P(B)=3/(10)` and `P(AnnB)=1/5,` then `P(A//B)P(B//A)` is equal to

A

a) `5/6`

B

b) `5/7`

C

c) `(25)/(42)`

D

d) `1/3`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d) `1/3`

Given,

`P(A)=2/5,\ P(B)=3/(10)` and `P(AnnB)=1/5,`

`P(A//B)P(B//A)=(P(AnnB)P(AnnB))/(P(A)P(B))`

`P(A//B)P(B//A)=(1/5*1/5)/(2/5*3/10)`

`P(A//B)P(B//A)=(1/25)/(3/25)`

`P(A//B)P(B//A)=1/3`

Hence, correct option is d)
