Answer: The probability of three correct answers and three incorrect answers is
(1)/(64)

Explanation:

Since we have given that

There is a true - false quiz of six questions.

Probability of getting a true =
(1)/(2)

Probability of getting a false =
(1)/(2)

Probability that she answers the first three questions correctly and the last three questions incorrectly is given by

P(Three correct) × P(Three incorrect)


((1)/(2)* (1)/(2)* (1)/(2))* ((1)/(2)* (1)/(2)* (1)/(2))\\\\=((1)/(2))^6\\\\=(1)/(64)

Hence, the probability of three correct answers and three incorrect answers is
(1)/(64)
