It is given that the probability of winning a game is 0.7 . What is the probability of losing the game ?

A

`0.8`

B

`0.3`

C

`0.35`

D

`0.15`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
P(losing the game) + P(winning the game) = 1.
`therefore` P(losing the game) + 0.7 = 1.
`therefore` P(losing the game) = (1 - 0.7) = 0.3 .
