प्रश्न
A black die and a white die are thrown at the same time. Write all the possible outcomes. What is the probability of obtaining a total of 10?
उत्तर
Total no. of possible outcomes when 2 dice are thrown = 6 × 6 = 36 which are
{ (1, 1) (1, 2) (1, 3) (1, 4) (1, 5) (1, 6)
(2, 1) (2, 2) (2, 3) (2, 4) (2, 5) (2, 6)
(3, 1) (3, 2) (3, 3) (3, 4) (3, 5) (3, 6)
(4, 1) (4, 2) (4, 3) (4, 4) (4, 5) (4, 6)
(5, 1) (5, 2) (5, 3) (5, 4) (5, 5) (5, 6)
(6, 1) (6, 2) (6, 3) (6, 4) (6, 5) (6, 6) }
Let E ⟶ event of obtaining a total of 10.
No. of favourable outcomes = 3 {(4, 6) (5, 5) (6, 4)}
P(E) =`"No.of favorable outcomes"/"Total no.of possible outcomes"`
P(E) =3/36 =1/12
