A pair of dice is thrown once the probability of doublets is
Answers
Answer:
number of doublets = 6
total number of outcomes =36
probability= favourable outcomes/total number of outcomes
therefore probability of doublets= 6/36
=1/6
Answer:
Your answer is 1/6.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are six ways to roll 2 dice such that both dice have the same value
These are the outcomes (1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(4,4,)(5,5) and (6,6).
To find the total number of outcomes, note that there are 6 choices for the first die (values 1–6) and there are 6 choices for the second die (again values 1–6) and so by the Multiplication Principle (MP) there are 36 total outcomes from rolling two dice once.
Now we have the following:
P(getting a doublet) =
Total number of outcomes
––––––––––––––―――――――――
Number of ways to get double=6/36=1/6
Thus, the probability of getting a doublet is
1/6.
