JEE Main 2026 — Mathematics Probability & Statistics

A letter is known to have arrived by post either from KANPUR or from ANANTPUR. On the envelope just two consecutive letters AN are visible. The probability, that the letter came from ANANTPUR, is:

The probability distribution of a random variable $X$ is given below : \(\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline X & 4k & \dfrac{30}{7}k & \dfrac{32}{7}k & \dfrac{34}{7}k & \dfrac{36}{7}k & \dfrac{38}{7}k & \dfrac{40}{7}k & 6k \\ \hline P(X) & \dfrac{2}{15} & \dfrac{1}{15} & \dfrac{2}{15} & \dfrac{1}{5} & \dfrac{1}{15} & \dfrac{2}{15} & \dfrac{1}{5} & \dfrac{1}{15} \\ \hline \end{array}\) If $\mathrm{E}(\mathrm{X})=\frac{263}{15}$, then $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{X}<20)$ is equal to :

Two distinct numbers $a$ and $b$ are selected at random from $1,2,3, \ldots, 50$. The probability, that their product $a b$ is divisible by 3, is

A data consists of $20$ observations $x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_{20}$. If $\sum_{i=1}^{20}(x_i + 5)^2 = 2500$ and $\sum_{i=1}^{20}(x_i - 5)^2 = 100$, then the ratio of mean to standard deviation of this data is:

From a month of $31$ days, $3$ different dates are selected at random. If the probability that these dates are in an increasing A.P. is equal to $\dfrac{a}{b}$, where $a,b \in \mathbb{N}$ and $\gcd(a,b)=1$, then $a+b$ is equal to ______
