Answer

Correct option: D.
$1.$
We have, $\text{P}(\text{B})=\frac{3}{5},\text{P}\Big(\frac{\text{A}}{\text{B}}\Big)=\frac{1}{2}$
$\therefore\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})=\text{P}\Big(\frac{\text{A}}{\text{B}}\Big)\cdot\text{P}(\text{B})$
$=\frac{1}{2}\cdot\frac{3}{5}=\frac{3}{10}$
Now, $\text{P}(\text{A}\cup\text{B})=\text{P}(\text{A})+\text{P}(\text{B})-\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})$
$\Rightarrow\text{P}(\text{A})=\frac{4}{5}-\frac{3}{5}+\frac{3}{10}=\frac{1}{2}$
$\therefore\text{P}(\text{A}\cup\text{B})\ '=1-\text{P}(\text{A}\cup\text{B})$
$=1-\frac{4}{5}=\frac{1}{5}$
And $\text{P}(\text{A}\ '\cap\text{B})=1-\text{P}(\text{A}-\text{B})$
$=1-\big[\text{P}(\text{A})-\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})\big]$
$=1-\Big(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{3}{10}\Big)=\frac{4}{5}$
$\Rightarrow\text{P}(\text{A}\cup\text{B})\ '+\text{P}(\text{A}\ '\cup\text{B})$
$=\frac{1}{5}+\frac{4}{5}=1$
