Question

Two dice are roled together. What is the probability of getting two number whose product is even? Answer

Answer 1

Two dice are thrown the total number of possibilities are 36

since one die=6 and two dice= 6 square = 36

the product of two numbers is even

the possibilities are

{(1*2),(1*4),(1*6)

(2*1)(2*2)(2*3)(2*4)(2*5)(2*6)

(3*2)(3*4)(3*6)

(4*1)(4*2)(4*3)(4*4)(4*5)(4*6)

(5*2)(5*4)(5*6)

(6*1)(6*2)(6*3)(6*4)(6*5)(6*6)}

The total number of getting even product is = 3+6+3+6+3+6

                                                                         = 27

P(Getting even product) = 27/36

                                       = 3/4
