Option 4 : 1/20

We know that,

Event that Ram, P(r) and Suresh, P(s) both passing the exam individually are independent events

So the probability of both of them occurring together is P(r) × P(s) = P(c), where C is the event where both pass the exam.

Probability of Ram passing the exam P(r) = 1/5

Probability of Suresh passing the exam P(s) = 25% = 25/100 = 1/4

The probability of both Suresh and Ram passing the exam P(C) = P(r) × P(s) = (1/5) × (1/4) = 1/20

∴ the probability of both Suresh and Ram passing the exam is 1/20
