Step-by-step explanation:
When two dice are tossed together,
Total possible outcomes =6
2
=36.
(i)P(doublet) :
The favorable outcomes ={(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(4,4),(5,5),(6,6)}
Number of favorable outcomes =6
∴ Probability of getting a doublet =P(doublet)=
36
6
=
6
1
.
(ii)P(sum=10) :
The favourable outcomes ={(4,6),(5,5),(6,4)}
Number of favorable outcomes =3
∴ Probability of getting a sum 10 =P(sum=10)=
36
3
=

Answer:
✿Option a) is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of possible outcomes = 36
Doublets are (1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (4, 4), (5, 5), (6, 6 )
Total number of doublets = 6
∴ Probability (getting a doublet)
= 6/36 or 1/6
