If two squares are chosen at random on a chessboard, what is the probability that they have a side in common? - Did't answer Answer - The corner squares are the ones. There are 4 such squares. P(selecting such a square) = 4/64 Here also, let the event of selecting an adjacent square be C, P(C)= 2/63 Now, solving all the three cases and adding them will give us the answer. Answer: P(selecting a square adjacent to 4 squares)*P(A) + P(selecting a square adjacent to 3 squares)*P(B) + P(selecting a square adjacent to 2 squares)*P(C) (36/64)*(4/63) + (24/64)*(3/63) + (4/64)*(2/63) 1/18
