Question

A pair of dice is thrown once. Find the probability of getting
i) same number on both sides
ii) a total of 9
iii) an even prime number as sum
iv) same odd number on both sides

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Total outcomes= 6×6= 36

possible of getting same= 6

P(s)= 6/36= 1/6

total of 9 can be achieved when you roll 4,5 or 5,4

therefore,

P(9)= 2/36= 1/18

Even prime number as sum= 1,1

P(p)=1/36

Odd numbers=1-1,3-3,5-5.

P(o)=3/36=1/12
