Answer : 1. "1/3"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 1/3 Explanation: In a family with 2 children there are four possibilities:1) the first child is a boy and the second child is a boy (bb)2) the first child is a boy and the second child is a girl (bg)3) the first child is a girl and the second child is a boy (gb)4) the first child is a girl and the second child is a girl (gg) But already given that one child is boy. So we have three possibilities of (bb)(bg)(gb).n(E)= both are boys=BB=1n(S)= 3Required probability P = n(E)/n(S) = 1/3.

Answer : 1. "(1/2)^11"
Explanation :
Answer: A) (1/2)^11 Explanation: Probability of occurrence of an event, P(E) = Number of favorable outcomes/Numeber of possible outcomes = n(E)/n(S) ⇒ Probability of getting head in one coin = ½, ⇒ Probability of not getting head in one coin = 1- ½ = ½, Hence, All the 11 tosses are independent of each other. ∴ Required probability of getting only 2 times heads =122×129=1211

Answer : 1. "15"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 15 Explanation: Using BODMAS Rule, First solve division, mutiplication and Addition So here 10/2 = 5 Then 2 x 5 = 10 Now, 5 + 10 = 15. Hence, 5 + 2 x 10/2 = 15.

Explanation :
Answer: B) FALSE Explanation: Hemopoiesis begins in the red bone marrow, with hemopoietic stem cells that differentiate into myeloid and lymphoid lineages. Myeloid stem cells give rise to all the other formed elements, including the erythrocytes; megakaryocytes that produce platelets; and a myeloblast lineage that gives rise to monocytes and three forms of granular leukocytes: neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils.

Answer : 2. "fee paid for borrowing money"
Explanation :
Answer: B) fee paid for borrowing money Explanation: A credit card's interest rate is the price you pay for borrowing money. For credit cards, the interest rates are typically stated as a yearly rate. This is called the annual percentage rate (APR). On most cards, you can avoid paying interest on purchases if you pay your balance in full each month by the due date. Your APR is expressed in terms of a year, but credit card companies use it to calculate charges over your monthly statement period.
