Two fair dice, each with faces numbered 1,2,3,4,5 and 6, are rolled together and the sum of the numbers on the faces is observed. This process is repeated till the sum is either a prime number or a perfect square. Suppose the sum turns out to be a perfect square before it turns out to be a prime number. If p is the probability that this perfect square is an odd number, then the value of 14p is_____

Let n1 & n2 be the number of red and black balls, respectively, in box I. Let n3 & n4 be the number of red and black balls, respectively, in box II. One of the two boxes, box I and box II, was selected at random and a ball was drawn randomly out of this box. The ball was found to be red. If the probability that this red ball was drawn from box II is 13, then the correct option(s) with the possible values of n1, n2, n3 & n4 is(are)

Consider three sets E1={1,2,3},F1={1,3,4} and G1={2,3,4,5}. Two elements are chosen at random, without replacement, from the set E1, and let S1 denote the set of these chosen elements. Let E2=E1-S1 and F2=F1S1. Now two elements are chosen at random, without replacement, from the set F2 and let S2 denote the set of these chosen elements.

Let G2=G1S2. Finally, two elements are chosen at random, without replacement, from the set G2 and let S3 denote the set of these chosen elements.
Let E3=E2S3. Given that E1=E3, let p be the conditional probability of the event S1={1,2}. Then the value of p is

Let C 1 and C 2 be two biased coins such that the probabilities of getting head in a single toss are 2 3 and 1 3 , respectively. Suppose α is the number of heads that appear when C 1 is tossed twice, independently, and suppose β is the number of heads that appear when C 2 is tossed twice, independently. Then the probability that the roots of the quadratic polynomial x 2 αx+β are real and equal, is
