Question
Two players, Sangeet and Rashmi, play a tennis match. The probability of Sangeetwinning the match is 0.62. What is the probability that Rashmi will win the match?
Solution
The probability of all possible outcomes in any scenario always adds up to 1. In this case, the two possible outcomes are Sangeet winning or Rashmi winning.
Given that the probability of Sangeet winning is 0.62, we can find the probability of Rashmi winning by subtracting Sangeet's probability from 1.
So, the calculation would be:
1 (total probability) - 0.62 (Sangeet's probability) = 0.38
Therefore, the probability that Rashmi will win the match is 0.38 or 38%.
