(i) 32/81 (ii) 11/27
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p be the probability that a scooterist does not have a driving licence.
Then p = not carrying licence/total number of scooterists
= 4/12
=1/3
q = 1-p = 2/3 and n = 4
(i) Probabily of the police catching one scooterist not having driving licence is explained in picture 1.
= 32/81
(ii) Probabily of the police catching at least two scooterists not having driving licence is explained in picture 2.
= 11/27
