A student argues that there are 11 possible outcomes as the sum on two dices which are 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12. Therefore, each of them has a probability $\frac{1}{11}$. Do you agree with this argument?
Question 12 :
A game consists of tossing a one rupee coin 3 times and noting its outcome each time. Hanif wins if all the tosses give the same result i.e., three heads or three tails, and loses otherwise. Calculate the probability that Hanif will lose the game.
Question 13 :
A lot consists of 144 ball pens of which 20 are defective and the others are good. Nuri will buy a pen if it is good, but will not buy if it is defective. The shopkeeper draws one pen at random and gives it to her. What is the probability that she will buy it ?
Question 14 :
A die is thrown twice. What is the probability that 5 will come up at least once?
Question 15 :
If two coins are tossed simultaneously there are three possible outcomes—two heads, two tails or one of each. Therefore, for each of these outcomes, the probability is $\frac{1}{3}$⋅ Yes/No
Question 16 :
A die is thrown twice. What is the probability that 5 will not come up either time?
Question 17 :

In the above image, suppose you drop a die at random on the rectangular region shown. What is the probability that it will land inside the circle with diameter 1m?
Question 19 :
If a die is thrown, there are two possible outcomes—an odd number or an even number. Therefore, the probability of getting an odd number is $\frac{1}{2}$. Yes/No
Question 20 :
A lot of 20 bulbs contain 4 defective ones. One bulb is drawn at random from the lot. Suppose a bulb drawn is not defective and is not replaced. Now one bulb is drawn at random from the rest. What is the probability that this bulb is not defective ?
Question 21 :
A lot consists of 144 ball pens of which 20 are defective and the others are good. Nuri will buy a pen if it is good, but will not buy if it is defective. The shopkeeper draws one pen at random and gives it to her. What is the probability that she will not buy it ?

Complete the following table which gives a few values of the total score on the two thrones then what is the probability that the total score is at least 6?

Question 25 :
A box contains 12 balls out of which x are black. If one ball is drawn at random from the box, what is the probability that it will be a black ball? If 6 more black balls are put in the box, the probability of drawing a black ball is now double of what it was before. Find x?
