Given : let A , B and C be three students whose chances of solving a problem is given i.e , P(A) = 1 4 , P(B) = 1 5 and P(C) = 1 6 . To Find: The probability that the problem is solved . Here , P(the problem is solved) = 1 - P(the problem is not solved) = 1 2 Therefore , The probability that the problem is solved is 1 2 .
