Teams P and Q are involved in a game of football. What is the probability that the game ends in a draw?
A
2/3
B
1/2
C
1/3
D
1/4
correct option: d
P (games end in draw)
=> Team P wins and Q wins
P(P wins) = 1/2
P(Q wins) = 1/2
Therefore P (games ends in draw) = 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4
=> Team P wins and Q wins
P(P wins) = 1/2
P(Q wins) = 1/2
Therefore P (games ends in draw) = 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4
