Total probability is always 1
So,
x/3 + 3x/2 = 1
(2x + 9x)/6 = 1 (LCM of denominators 3 and 2 is 6)
11x/6 = 1
x = 6/11
Hope This Helps You!

probability of guessing correct answer = x/3
probability of not guessing the correct answer = 3x/2
we know probability = 1
x/3 + 3x/2 = 1
(2x + 9x )/6 = 1
11x/6 = 1
x = 6/11
probability of not guessing the correct answer = 3x/2
we know probability = 1
x/3 + 3x/2 = 1
(2x + 9x )/6 = 1
11x/6 = 1
x = 6/11
