Answer : 3. "2/21"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 2/21 Explanation: Given that there are three blue marbles, four red marbles, six green marbles and two yellow marbles. Probability that both marbles are blue = ³C₂/¹⁵C₂ = (3 x 2)/(15 x 14) = 1/35 Probability that both are yellow = ²C₂/¹⁵C₂ = (2 x 1)/(15 x 14) = 1/105 Probability that one blue and other is yellow = (³C₁ x ²C₁)/¹⁵C₂ = (2 x 3 x 2)/(15 x 14) = 2/35 Required probability = 1/35 + 1/105 + 2/35 = 3/35 + 1/105 = 1/35(3 + 1/3) = 10/(3 x 35) = 2/21

Answer : 2. "Rs. 420"
Explanation :
Answer: B) Rs. 420 Explanation: As given in the question, Marked price is 25% more than the Cost price. => C.P of the article = 34 x 400 = 300 Now, Let the original S.P of the article be Rs. P Now the new S.P = P + 16.666 +13.333300 x P => S.P = 7P6 According to the question, 7P6 - 300 = 2P - 300 => 5P = 1800 => P = Rs. 360 Hence, the increased S.P = 360 x 7/6 = Rs. 420.
