Previous Year Question (PYQs)
4
Two customers, Rachana and Bhakti, are visiting a particular shop in the same week (Tuesday to Saturday). Each is equally likely to visit the shop on any day as on another day. What is the probability that both will visit the shop on consecutive days?
Solution
Total days = 5 (Tuesday to Saturday).
Total possible pairs $= 5 \times 5 = 25$.
Consecutive day pairs = $(T,W), (W,T), (W,Th), (Th,W), (Th,F), (F,Th), (F,S), (S,F)$ → total 8.
So, $P = \dfrac{8}{25}$.
