FAQs on Probability: JEE Mains Previous Year Questions (2021-2024) - Mathematics (Maths) for JEE Main & Advanced
| 1. What is the probability of rolling a prime number on a fair six-sided die? |  |
Ans. To find the probability of rolling a prime number on a fair six-sided die, we first determine the total number of prime numbers on a die, which are 2, 3, and 5. Since there are 6 possible outcomes when rolling a die, the probability of rolling a prime number is 3/6 or 1/2.
| 2. If two cards are drawn at random from a standard deck of 52 cards without replacement, what is the probability that both cards are red? | |
Ans. When drawing two cards from a deck without replacement, there are 26 red cards out of the total 52 cards. The probability of drawing a red card on the first draw is 26/52. After drawing a red card, there are 25 red cards left out of 51 total cards. Therefore, the probability of drawing a second red card is 25/51. Multiplying these probabilities together gives us (26/52) * (25/51) = 25/102, which is the probability of drawing two red cards consecutively.
| 3. In a group of 10 people, what is the probability that at least two people have the same birthday? | |
Ans. The probability that no two people share the same birthday in a group of 10 can be calculated using the formula for permutations. We have 365 days in a year, so the probability that the first person has a unique birthday is 365/365. The second person must have a different birthday from the first, so the probability is 364/365. Continuing this pattern, the probability that all 10 people have different birthdays is (365/365) * (364/365) * ... * (356/365). The probability that at least two people share the same birthday is the complement of this probability, which is 1 - (365/365) * (364/365) * ... * (356/365).
| 4. A bag contains 4 red balls, 5 white balls, and 3 blue balls. If a ball is drawn at random from the bag, what is the probability that it is either red or white? | |
Ans. The total number of balls in the bag is 4 red + 5 white + 3 blue = 12 balls. The probability of drawing a red ball is 4/12 and the probability of drawing a white ball is 5/12. To find the probability of drawing either a red or white ball, we add the individual probabilities together, giving us 4/12 + 5/12 = 9/12 or 3/4.
| 5. If the probability of rain on any given day is 0.3, what is the probability of no rain for 5 consecutive days? | |
Ans. The probability of no rain on any given day is 0.7 (1 - 0.3). To find the probability of no rain for 5 consecutive days, we multiply the probability of no rain for each day together: (0.7)^5 = 0.16807. Therefore, the probability of no rain for 5 consecutive days is 0.16807.
