Three different positions X, Y and Z of a dice are shown in the figures given below. Which number lies opposite 6?

A) 1 B) 2
C) 4 D) 5
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 1

A) 6/145 B) 36/145
C) 18/95 D) 12/145
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 36/145

Explanation:
 

The probability that first ball is white:
=C112C130=1230=25


Since, the ball is not replaced; hence the number of balls left in bag is 29.
Hence the probability the second ball is black:
=C118C129=1829


Required probability =(25)×(1829)


=36/145
