Question

Two dice are thrown and the product is noted find the probability of getting prime numbers

Answer 1

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

So here if you take the products of (1,2) (2,1) (1,3) (3,1) (1,5) (5,1) all of them are prime numbers. Out of the 36 products you are getting only 6 products as prime numbers.

P(E) = N(E) / N(S)                                    N(S) = 36               N(E) = 6

       = 6/36

       = 1/6
