बेरीज

उत्तर

When two dice are rolled, total number of possible outcomes = 36 

Favorable outcomes for the sum of numbers less than 6 i.e. 2, 3, 4 or 5 are: 

{(1, 1),(1, 2),(1, 3),(1, 4),(2, 1),(2, 2),(2, 3),(3, 1),(3, 2),(4, 1)}

Number of favorable outcomes = 10

P(getting a sum of less than 6) = `10/36 = 5/18`
