Question

Assertion (A): In probability, the sum of probabilities of all possible outcomes of an event is always 1.

Reason (R): Probability of an impossible event is always 1.

A.

B.

Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A

C.

A is true, but R is false

D.

A is false, but R is true

Correct option is C

Solution:

Assertion (A) is TRUE. In probability theory, the total probability of all outcomes in a sample space is always 1.
Reason (R) is FALSE. The probability of an impossible event is 0, not 1.
Thus:
· A is true
· R is false
Correct Answer: (c)
