A dice is thrown twice. What is the probability that

(i) 5 will not come up either time ?

(ii) 5 will come up at least once ?

Probability of getting 5 on throwing the dice once .

Sample space $\begin{cases}(5,1)\\(5,2)\\(5,3)\\(5,4)\\(5,5)\\(5,6)\end{cases}$

For tossing it twice we have 11 outcomes

Number of outcomes we get on throwing a dice once = 18

So , hence total outcomes on throwing it twice = 18 × 2 = 36

Number of times we can get a 5 = 11

i ) Number of times we won't get a 5

$\hookrightarrow\:36\:-\:11\:=\:25$

Event 1 = Probability of not getting a 5 either time

Event 1 = $\frac{Favorable\: outcomes}{Total\: number\:of\: outcomes}$

Event 1 = $\dfrac{25}{36}$

ii ) Number of times we will get 5 atleast once = 11

Event 2 = Probability of getting a 5 atleast one time

Event 2 = $\frac{Favorable\: outcomes}{Total\: number\:of\: outcomes}$

Event 2 = $\dfrac{11}{36}$
