The faces of two dice are marked +1, +2, +3, +4, +5, +6 and –1, –2, –3, –4, –5, –6, respectively. Ram throws the pair of dice alternately and record the sum of the numbers that turn up each time and keep adding their scores separately. If his score reaches 20 or more, he wins the game. What is the maximum score just one throw of both dice? *
a. 5
b.12
c. 4
d. 10
Answers
Answer:
a )5
because 1 dies have negative numbers and other have positive
hence if we have to get more score in throw then possibly positive die get 6 and negative get - 1
: 6-1= 5
Concept:
Mathematics has 4 basic operations namely edition subtraction multiplication and division. Simplifying and expression means solving the expression to reduce it into its lowest form
Given:
We are given two dices:
One marked as +1, +2, +3, +4, +5, +6
Other one as -1, -2, -3, -4, -5, -6
Find:
We need to find the highest score that can come when both the dices are thrown only once.
Solution:
Highest number on the first die that can come = 6
Highest number on the second die that can come = - 1
Sum of both the numbers = 6 + (-1) = 6 - 1 = 5
Therefore, the maximum score by just one throw of both dice can be option (a) 5.
