Solution
The correct option is B
(1) In an equally likely event, all the out comes have same probability
(2) The probability of all the outcomes added or probability of sample space is one.
Let's assume there are n chocolates in the box. We are given the chanceprobability of all the chocolates (or brands) are same (equally - likely).
Let's take that common probability as p. Now, if we add the probability of all the chocolates, we should get 1.
⇒ np = 1 ⇒ p=1n
