Cal this random vanable on aral pairs have the same probabaty, what must be the probabaty or each pa (assuming that we astinguish between, (12) and Give your answer to decimal places. Fil in the blank The probability of each pair isa

Explanation / Answer

Answer) We have 36 possible pairs in total.

So, if all the pairs have the same probability the probability of each pair is to determined.

Using classical definition of probability, the probability is given by

       P(Each Pair) = Number of outcomes of a pair / Total number of pairs

       P(Each Pair) = 1 / 36

                            = 0.028

Hence, the probability of each pair = 0.028
