(x>3)=4,5,6
p of (x>3)=3/6
(x a prime number)= 2,3,5,   
p of (x a prime number)
So both =2,3,5 and 4,5,6

5 is repeated so (2,3,4,5,6)=p of both 5/6
the Question was to confuse you .

ashish:
rex has an old car. the probability that he is able to start the car on a rainy day is 0.2 and the probability that he is able to start it on a fine day is 0.6 . if the weather is either fine or rainy, and probability the weather is fine is p, the find in terms of p
1) the probability that he is unable to start the car on a day
2) the conditional probability that a day is fine and he is unable to start the car?

can someone solve this question please ???
