For example if Ram falls ill every third day of a week so what will be the likelihood of the event “Ram will go to school if fall ill for the first time on monday”.  

Since in a week there are seven days, thus every third day means that Ram will fall ill at most 2 times in a week. If he falls ill on Monday for the first time then he will fall ill for the second time on Thursday. Thus out of 7 days he goes to school for 5 days, Thus his probability of going to school is 5/7
