    Answer:
    (i) It is not an equally likely event, as it depends on various
    factors such as whether the car will start or not. And factors for
    both the conditions are not the same.
    (ii) It is not an equally likely event, as it depends on the
    player’s ability and there is no information given about that.
    (iii) It is an equally likely event.
    (iv) It is an equally likely event.
