(Q26) Sangeeta and Reshma, play a tennis match. It is known that the probability of Sangeeta winning the match is 0.62. What is the probability of Reshma winning the match ?

Solution :

Let S and R denote the events that Sangeeta wins the match and Reshma wins the match, respectively

The probability of Sangeeta's winning chances = P(S) = 0.62 (given)

The probability of Reshma's winning chances = P(R) = - P(S)

Therefore, The probability of Reshma's winning chances = - 0.62 = [R and S are complementary]
