Answer:
GIVEN :-
•Given that, Two dice are thrown at the same time.
•the total number of possible outcomes n(S) = 62 = 36
TO FIND :-
(i) the same number on both dice.
(ii) different numbers on both dice.
FORMULAE :-
P(E) = Number of favourable outcomes/Total no. of favourable outcomes
SOLUTION :-
➡️(i) Getting the same number on both dice:
Let A be the event of getting the same number on both dice.
Possible outcomes are (1,1), (2,2), (3, 3), (4, 4), (5, 5) and (6, 6).
Number of possible outcomes = n(A) = 6
Hence, the required probability =P(A) = n(A)/n(S)
= 6/36
= 1/6
➡️(ii) Getting a different number on both dice.
Let B be the event of getting a different number on both dice.
Number of possible outcomes n(B) = 36 – Number of possible outcomes for the same number on both dice
= 36 – 6 = 30
Hence, the required probability = P(B) = n(B)/n(S)
= 30/36
= 5/6
