उत्तर

Two students are selected at random from a group of 4 boys and 3 girls (total 7)
2 students can be selected from a group of 7 students in 7C2 ways.
∴ n(S) = 7C2 = `(7xx6)/(2xx1)` = 21

Assertion (A): Two coins are tossed simultaneously. The probability of getting two heads, if it is known that at least one head comes up, is `1/3`.

Reason (R): Let E and F be two events with a random experiment, then `P(E/F) = (P(E ∩ F))/(P(E))`.
