Question

In a shooting competition, the probability that rahul will hit the target is 5/7 and the probability that sheela will hit the target is 3/4. So what is the probability that both of them will hit the target

Answer 1

Answer: 15/28

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the probability, we need to multiply 5/7 by 3/4. This will give us a result of 15/28. Hope this helps.

Answer 2

Answer:

The probability that both Rahul and Sheela will hit the target is $\frac{15}{28}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the probability that Rahul will hit the target be P(R) = $\frac{5}{7}$

Let the probability that Sheela will hit the target be P(S) = $\frac{3}{4}$

The probability that both will hit the target is given by

= P(R) × P(S)

$=(\frac{5}{7} )(\frac{3}{4} )$

= $\frac{15}{28}$

Therefore the probability that both Rahul and Sheela will hit the target is $\frac{15}{28}$
