बेरीज

उत्तर

Total no. of days to visit the shop = 6 {Mon to Sat}

otal no. possible outcomes = 6 × 6 = 36

i.e. two customers can visit the shop in 36 ways

E⟶ event of visiting shop on the same day.

`barE`⟶ event of visiting shop on the different days.

In above bit, we calculated P(E) as 1/6

We know that, P(E) + P(`barE`) = 1

P(`barE` ) = 1 – P(E)
= 1 − 1/6

=5/6
