Question

Two different dice are thrown together. Find the probability that the numbers obtained
() have a sum less than 7
(ii) have a product less than 16
(iii) is a doublet of odd numbers.
answer
(1) p( have a sum less than 7 ) = 15/36.
(2) p( have a product less than 16 ) = 25/36.
(3) p (is a doublet of odd numbers) = 3/36.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The outcomes when two dice are thrown together are:-

(1,1), (1,2), (1,3), (1,4), (1,5), (1,6)(2,1), (2,2), (2,3), (2,4), (2,5), (2,6)(3,1), (3,2), (3,3), (3,4), (3,5), (3,6)(4,1), (4,2), (4,3), (4,4), (4,5), (4,6)(5,1), (5,2), (5,3), (5,4), (5,5), (5,6)(6,1), (6,2), (6,3), (6,4), (6,5), (6,6)Total number of outcomes = 36

(i) Let A be the event of getting the numbers whose sum is less than 7.

The outcomes in favour of event A are (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) and (5,1).Number of favourable outcomes = 15

Therefore, P(A) = Number of favourable Outcomes/Total No. of Outcomes = 15/36 = 5/12

(ii) Let B be the event of getting the numbers whose product is less than 16.

The outcomes in favour of event B are (1,1), (1,2), (1,3), (1,4), (1,5), (1,6), (2,1), (2,2), (2,3), (2,4), (2,5), (2,6), (3,1), (3,2), (3,3), (3,4), (3,5), (4,1), (4,2), (4,3), (5,1), (5,2), (5,3), (6,1) and (6,2).

Number of favourable outcomes = 25

Therefore, P(A) = Number of favourable Outcomes/Total No. of Outcomes =  25/36

iii) Let C be the event of getting the numbers which are doublets of odd numbers...

The outcomes in favour of event C are (1,1), (3,3) and (5,5).

Number of favourable outcomes = 3

Therefore, P(A) = Number of favourable Outcomes/Total No. of Outcomes = 3/36 = 1/12
