उत्तर

35%

Explanation:

A Speak truth 75% i.e. P(A) =`3/4`  `"P"(overline ("A")) =1/4`

Similarly 80% i.e. `"P"("B") =4/5 "P"(overline ("B") )=1/5`

While contradicting the narration

Probability =`"P"("A") ="P" (overline("B"))+"P"(overline("A"))"PB"`

`=3/4xx1/5+1/4xx4/5=7/20` or `7/20xx100=35%`
