Question

what is the probability of getting a sum of 6 in a single toss of a pair of fair dice

Answer 1

Answer: 5/36

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of possibilities = 36

Number of favourable possibilities = 5 [(1,5),(2,4),(3,3),(4,2),(5,1)]

Probability of the Event = Number of Favourable possibilities / Total number of possibilities

Probability of getting a sum of 6 on rolling two fair dice = 5/36
