Answer 1

Answer:

SOLUTION: Show that in a single throw of two dice, the probability of throwing more than 7 is equal to that of throwing less than 7, and hence find the probability of exactly 7. throwing less than 7, and hence find the probability of exactly 7. That leaves a 6/36=1/6 probability for a sum of 7.
