Answer : 3. "1/4"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 1/4 Explanation: Non collision can happen only when all the cars move in same direction. That is either all cars moving in clockwise direction or all cars moving in anti clockwise direction.P(all cars not colliding) = P(all cars moving in the same direction) = P(all cars moving in clockwise direction)  +  P(all cars moving in anticlockwise direction) = [p(A --> C) x p(C --> B) x p(B --> A)]  +  [p(A --> B) x p(B --> C) x p(C --> A)] = [1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2] + [1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2] = 1/8 + 1/8 = 1/4

Answer : 4. "If statement A and B together are not sufficient."
Explanation :

Answer: D) If statement A and B together are not sufficient. Explanation: From both statements we cannot conclude the train catched by Harish Since he missed at 4.15 and train coes at 4.30, 4.45, 5.00,...
