Answers (1)

Answer:44%

Hint: You must know the rules of finding probability functions.

Given: Husband tells a lie in 30% cases,

Wife tells a lie in 35% cases.

Solution:

\begin{aligned} &P(\text { husband lies })=\frac{30}{100}=0.3 \\ &P(\text { wife lies })=\frac{35}{100}=0.35 \end{aligned}

P(both\: will \: contradict \: each\: other\: on \: the\: same\: fact) =

P(husband \: lies,\: wife\: not) + P(wife \: lies, husband\: not)

\begin{aligned} &P(H) P(\bar{W})+P(W) P(\bar{H}) \\ \end{aligned}

\begin{aligned} &=0.3 \times(1-0.35)+(1-0.3) \times 0.35 \\ &=(0.3 \times 0.65)+(0.7 \times 0.35) \\ &=0.195+0.245 \\ &=0.44 \\ &\therefore \text { Both contradict }=44 \% \end{aligned}
