$A$ player $X$ has a biased coin whose probability of showing heads is $p$ and a player $Y$ has a fair coin. They start playing a game with their own coins and play alternately. The player who throws a head first is a winner. If $X$ starts the game,and the probability of winning the game by both the players is equal,then the value of $p$ is

$A$ boy throws an unbiased die. Whenever he gets $1$ on the die, he has a further chance to throw it once again immediately. The probability that the boy gets a score of $7$ in this process is

Consider the following statements:
Assertion $(A)$: If $P_1, P_2, P_3$ are probabilities of occurrence of three independent events, then the probability of occurrence of at least one of them is $1 - [(1 - P_1)(1 - P_2)(1 - P_3)]$.
Reason $(R)$: For any three independent events $A, B$, and $C$, $P(A \cup B \cup C) = P(A) + P(B) + P(C) - P(A)P(B) - P(A)P(C) - P(B)P(C) + P(A)P(B)P(C)$.
The correct option among the following is:

$2$ aeroplanes $I$ and $II$ bomb a target in succession. The probabilities of $I$ and $II$ scoring a hit correctly are $0.3$ and $0.2$ respectively. The second plane will bomb only if the first misses the target. The probability that the target is hit by the $2^{nd}$ plane is

An urn $A$ contains $4$ white and $1$ black ball; urn $B$ contains $3$ white and $2$ black balls and urn $C$ contains $2$ white and $3$ black balls. One ball is transferred randomly from $A$ to $B$; later one ball is transferred randomly from $B$ to $C$. Finally,if a ball is drawn randomly from $C$,then the probability that it is a black ball is
