Two different dice are tossed together. Find the probability :(i) of getting a doublet(ii) of getting a sum 10, of the numbers on the two dice.

Answer»

Total number of possible outcomes = 36

(i) 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

(ii) Favourable outcomes are (4, 6), (5, 5), (6, 4) i.e., 3

∴ Probability (getting a sum 10) = 3/36 or 1/12
