Question

Consider the following statements-

i) Getting a tail or head when a coin is tossed.
ii) Getting a cold wave in your village in the month of November.

Categorise them into less likely, equally likely or more likely.

• A. more likely and equally likely
• B. equally likely and more likely
• C. more likely and less likely
• D. less likely and equally likely

Answer 1

The correct option is B equally likely and more likely

Less likely means something that would occur with less chance.

Equally likely means somethings that have the same chance of occurring. Getting head or tail in a coin toss has the same probability.

More likely means something that would occur with a great chance. November is the month of winter, means there is a greater chance of getting cool air at that time.
