In: Statistics and Probability
suppose you roll two fair dice.
A) what is the probability that you will roll an even number on the first die AND a 5 on the second die
B) What is the probability that the sum of the numbers on the two dice is 9?
show all work.
In case of single die we have six possible outcomes which is 1,2,3,4,5,6. If we roll die twice then we have 36 possible outcomes, out of these 36 we have 18 outcomes in which first die shows even number. There are 4 outcomes in which the sum of two number on die is ,9. Considering all the probability of the two events are given below.
