In a simultaneous throw of a pair of dice, find the probability of getting a sum greater than 9
उत्तर
In a throw of pair of dice, total no of possible outcomes = 36 (6 × 6) 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)
E ⟶ event of getting a sum greater than 9
No. of favorable outcomes = 6 {(4, 6) (5, 5) (5, 6) (6, 4) (6, 5) (6, 6)}
Total no. of possible outcomes = 36
We know that, Probability P(E) =`"No.of favorable outcomes"/"Total no.of possible outcomes"`
P(E) =6/36 =1/6
