Hope this helps you


A man speaks truth 4 out of 5 times. Probability of speaking truth will be 4/5. He reports that there is a six. So probability of event occurring 1/6.


Given they are not mutually exclusive. Probability of actual six,


1/4 * 4/5 = 5/12 ~ 0.4166


Therefore, probability that it was actual six is 0.4166.

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

It consists of two cases mainly. They are 1. It is a six and he has said the truth =(1/6)*(4/5) =x

2. It is not a 6 and he has lied =(5/6)*(1/5)=y

So the answer will be x/x+y
