CBSE Class 12 Mathematics 2026 Main Paper 65/4/2 · Question 26 (Probability)

A debate is held with probability 1/3 and a quiz with probability 2/3. For debate choose two from team A (4 girls, 6 boys); for quiz choose two from team B (7 girls, 3 boys). Find the probability of one girl and one boy.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: 22/45.
  1. With uniform sampling without replacement, the mixed-pair probability for A is 4·6/45=8/15.
  2. For B it is 7·3/45=7/15.
  3. Weight these by 1/3 and 2/3 respectively to get 22/45.
