A black die and a white die are thrown at the same time. Write all the possible outcomes. What is the probability?
that the numbers obtained have a product less then 16.
उत्तर
A pair of dice is thrown
TO FIND: Probability of the following:
Let us first write the all possible events that can occur
(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),
Hence total number of events is `6^2=36`
Let B be the event of getting the numbers whose product is less than 16.
The outcomes in favour of event B 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), (4,1), (4,2), (4,3), (5,1), (5,2), (5,3), (6,1) and (6,2).
Number of favourable outcomes = 25
∴ P(B ) = \[\frac{\text{ Number of favourable outcomes }}{\text{ Total number of outcomes }} = \frac{25}{36}\]
