One of the two events must occur. If the chance of one is 2/3 of the other, then odds in favour of the other are

Let E and F be the two events such that one must occur.


Given,


P(E) = 2/3 P(F)


Also, P(E ∪ F) = 1


P(E) + P(F) = 1


P(F){2/3 + 1} = 1


P(F) = 3/5


And P(F’) = 1 – 3/5 = 2/5


We have to find


Odds in favour of F = 3/2


As our answer matches only with option (d)


Option (d) is the only correct choice.
