Answer:(d)

Hint: You must know the rules of finding probability.

Given: P(B)=\frac{3}{5}, P\left(\frac{A}{B}\right)=\frac{1}{2}, P(A \cup B)=\frac{4}{5}

Solution:

\begin{aligned} &P\left(\frac{A}{B}\right)=\frac{1}{2} \\ &\frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}=\frac{1}{2} \\ &P(A \cap B)=\frac{1}{2} \times P(B) \\ &P(A \cap B)=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{3}{5}=\frac{3}{10} \end{aligned}

As,

\begin{aligned} &P(A \cup B)=\frac{4}{5} \\\\ &P(A)+P(B)-P(A \cap B)=\frac{4}{5} \\\\ &P(A)=\frac{4}{5}-\frac{3}{5}+\frac{3}{10} \\\\ &=\frac{8-6+3}{10}=\frac{5}{10}=\frac{1}{2} \end{aligned}

Now,

$$ \begin{aligned} &P\left(A^{\prime}\right)=1-P(A) \\ &=1-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2} \end{aligned}

We know, P(A \cap B)+P(A \cap B)=P(B)

[ As A \cap B and are A \cap B mutually exclusive events ]

\begin{aligned} &\Rightarrow \frac{3}{10}+P\left(A^{\prime} \cap B\right)=\frac{3}{5} \\ &\Rightarrow P\left(A^{\prime} \cap B\right)=\frac{3}{5}-\frac{3}{10}=\frac{3}{10} \end{aligned}

Now

\begin{aligned} &P(A \cup B)=P\left(A^{\prime}\right)+P(B)-P(A \cap B) \\ &=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{3}{5}-\frac{3}{10} \\ &=\frac{5+6-3}{10} \\ &=\frac{4}{5} \end{aligned}

\begin{aligned} &P\left((A \cup B)^{\prime}\right)=1-P(A \cup B)=1-\frac{4}{5}=\frac{1}{5} \\ &\therefore P\left((A \cup B)^{\prime}\right)+P(A \cup B)=\frac{1}{5}+\frac{4}{5}=1 \end{aligned}
