a dice is rolled twice. find the probability that 5 will not come up either time and 5 will come up exactly one time
Answers
Events of getting 5 are = (5,1),( 5,2),( 5,3),( 5,4),( 5,5),( 5,6),(1,5),(2,5),(3,5), (4,5),( 6,5)
probability of getting getting 5 =11/36
Probability of not getting 5 =1-(11/36) =25/36
probability of getting. 5 exactly one time is =10/36
Answer: The Probability that 5 will not come up on either of them is 25/36 and the Probability that 5 will come up exactly one time is 5/18.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given in the question that a dice is rolled twice .
If we throw two dices then the total possible outcomes are as follows:
Thus, the total no. of possible outcomes when the two dices are thrown is 36
(i) Let E1 be the event that 5 will not come up either of them
Total number of favorable outcomes (5 not coming up on either of them) :
Total no. of favorable outcomes = 25
Hence,P(E1) = Number of favourable outcomes/total number of outcomes
P(E1) = 25/36
Hence, the Probability that 5 will not come up on either of them, P(E1) is 25/36
(ii) Let E2 be the event that 5 will come up exactly one time
Total number of favorable outcomes (5 will come up exactly one time) : {(1, 5) (2, 5) (3, 5) (4, 5) (5, 1) (5, 2) (5, 3) (5, 4) (5, 6) (6, 5)}
Total no. of favorable outcomes = 10
Hence, P(E2) = Number of favourable outcomes / total number of outcomes
P(E2) = 10/36 = 5/18
Hence, the Probability that 5 will come up exactly one time , P(E2) is 5/18
