Answer:
There is a 2/3 probability that the other side is also black.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here let B1: Event of picking a card that has a black side
B2: Event of picking a card that has BOTH black side.
Now, by the CONDITIONAL PROBABILITY:
Now, as EXACTLY ONE CARD has both sides BLACK in three cards.
⇒ P (B1 ∩ B2) = 1 /3
Also, Out if total 6 sides of cards, 3 are BLACK from one side.
⇒ P (B1 ) = 3 /6 = 1/2
Putting these values in the formula, we get:
⇒ P (B2 / B1) = 2/3
Hence, there is a 2/3 probability that the other side is also black.
