Two dice are thrown simultaneously. Find the probability that the sum obtained is divisible by 4 or is less than 7 ?
Answers
Answer:
If two dice are rolled , then there are 36 outcomes.
S = {1,1 , 1,2 , 1,3 , 1,4 , 1,5 , 1,6
2,1 , 2,2 , and so on }
n(s) = 36
Let 'A' be the event that sum of no. obtained is divisible by 4.
A = { 1,3 , 2,2 , 2,6 , 3,1 , 3,5 , 4,4 , 5,3 , 6,2 , 6,6 }
n(A) = 9
:. P (A) = 9/36 = 1/4.
:. Probability of event that sum of no. obtained id divisible by 4 is 1/4.
Let 'B' be the event that the sum of the number is less than 7.
B = { 1,1 , 1,2 , 1,3 , 1,4, 1,5 , 2,1 , 2,2 , 2,3 , 2,4 , 3,1 , 3,2 , 3,3 , 4,1 , 4,2 , 5,1 }
n (B) = 15
:. P (B) = 15/36
:. P (B) = 5/12.
:. Probability of event that sum obtained is less than 7 is 5/12.
Please continue the 'S' set. And also, I have not used the formula P(S) = n(A)/P(S) so please remember all these things.
