Question
An ordinary (fair) die is a cube with the numbers 1 through 6 on the sides (represented by painted spots). Imagine that such a die is rolled twice in succession and that the face values of the two rolls are added together. This sum is recorded as the outcome of a single trial of a random experiment. Compute the probability of each of the following events Event A: The sum is greater than 6. Event B: The sum is not divisible by 5 and not divisible by 6 Write your answers as exact fractions P(B) Clear Undo HelpExplanation / Answer
Event A :
Total outcome = 6 *6 = 36
Sum greater than 6 = 21
hence
P(A) = 21/36
P(A) = 7/12
==========
P(B) = 22/36
=11/18
