E1={(2,2),(2,3),(3,2),(2,5),(5,2)(3,5),(5,3),(3,3).(5,5)} E2={(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(4,4),(5,5)(6,6)} E3={(1,3),(3,1),(2,2)} P(E1)=936;  P(E2)=636;  P(E3)=336 Clearly, P(E1),P(E2),P(E3)  are in A.P. (a)  is correct   P(E1E2)=336=112P(E1)P(E2)(b)  is incorrect   Now,  P(E3/E1)=P(E3E1)P(E1)=19(c)  is incorrect   Also,  P(E1+E2)+P(E2E3)=[P(E1)+P(E2)P(E1E2)]  +[P(E2)P(E1E3)] =936+1236336136=1736 (d) is correct
