Question

If a dice is loaded in such a way that an odd number is twice as likely to occur as an even number. If A be the event of occurrence of number less than 4, find the probability of A?

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the probability of odd numbers be x and even numbers be 2x (since even number is twice as likely to occcur as an odd number). Hence, probability of odd and even numbers is 1/9 and 2/9 respectively. Now, if a dice is tossed twice, let X be the product of the digits shown on dice.
