MCQ

Choose the correct answer from the given four options.If $\text{P}(\text{A})=\frac{3}{10},\text{P}(\text{B})=\frac{2}{5}$ and $\text{P}(\text{A}\cup\text{B})=\frac{3}{5},$ then $\text{P}\Big(\frac{\text{B}}{\text{A}}\Big)+\text{P}\Big(\frac{\text{A}}{\text{B}}\Big)$ equas:

A
$\frac{1}{4}$
B
$\frac{1}{3}$
C
$\frac{15}{12}$
✓
$\frac{7}{2}$

✓

Answer

Correct option: D.

$\frac{7}{2}$

We have, $\text{P}(\text{A})=\frac{3}{10},\text{P}(\text{B})=\frac{2}{5}$ and $\text{P}(\text{A}\cup\text{B})=\frac{3}{5}$
$\text{P}(\text{A}\cup\text{B})=\text{P}(\text{A})+\text{P}(\text{B})-\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})$
$\therefore\frac{3}{5}=\frac{3}{10}+\frac{2}{5}-\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})$
$\therefore\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})=\frac{1}{10}$
$\text{P}\Big(\frac{\text{B}}{\text{A}}\Big)+\text{P}\Big(\frac{\text{A}}{\text{B}}\Big)=\frac{\text{P}(\text{B}\cap\text{A})}{\text{P}(\text{A})}+\frac{\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})}{\text{P}(\text{B})}$
$=\frac{\frac{1}{10}}{\frac{3}{10}}+\frac{\frac{1}{10}}{\frac{2}{5}}$
$=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{7}{12}$
