Two dice are thrown simultaneously. Find the probability of getting: an even number as the sum.
उत्तर
n(s) = 36 i.e.
(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)
Event = { even number as the sum }
i.e., = {(1, 1), (1, 3), (3, 1), (2, 2), (1, 5), (5, 1), (2, 4), (4, 2), (3, 3), (2, 6), (6, 2), (4, 4), (5, 3), (3, 5), (5, 5), (6, 4), (4, 6), and (6, 6)}
n( E) = 18
P(E) = ?
∴ P(E) = `"n(E)"/"n(S)" = 18/36 = 1/2`
