प्रश्न
In a single throw of a pair of different dice, what is the probability of getting (i) a prime number on each dice?
उत्तर
Total number of outcomes on throwing a pair of dice = 6 × 6 = 36
Let E be the event of getting a prime number on each die.
∴ Favourable outcomes = {(2, 2), (2, 3), (2, 5), (3, 2), (3, 3), (3, 5), (5, 2), (5, 3), (5, 5)}
Number of favourable outcomes = 9
Now,
`P(E)=9/6=1/4`
Thus, the probability of getting a prime number on each die is `1/4`

Two digit numbers are formed using the digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 where digits are not repeated.
P is the event that the number so formed is even.
Q is the event that the number so formed is greater than 50.
R is the event that the number so formed is divisible by 3.
Then write the sample space S and events P, Q, R using set notation.
