Question
Write sample space ‘S’ and number of sample point n(S) for the following experiment. Also write events A, B, C in the set form and write n(A), n(B), n(C).
Two dice are rolled simultaneously,
Event A : The sum of the digits on upper faces is a multiple of 6.
Event B : The sum of the digits on the upper faces is minimum 10.
Event C : The same digit on both the upper faces.
Solution
Two dice are rolled simultaneously.
Sample Space (S) = `{[(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)]}`
(ii) Event B : The sum of the digits on the upper faces is minimum 10.
B = {(4, 6) (5, 5) (5, 6) (6, 4) (6, 5) (6, 6)}
∴ n(B) = 6
(iii) Event C : The same digit on both the upper faces.
C = {(1, 1) (2, 2) (3, 3) (4, 4) (5, 5) (6, 6)}
∴ n(C) = 6

Two coins are tossed simultaneously. Complete the following activity of writing of the sample space (S) and expected outcomes of the events :
1) Event A : to get at least one head.
2) Event B : to get no head.
Activity : If two coins are tossed simultaneously
∴ s = {`square , "HT","TH", square`}
1) Event A : at least getting one head.
∴ A = {`"HH" , square , "TH"`}
2) Event B : to get no head.
∴ B = {`square`}

Write a sample space if two coins are tossed simultaneously
Two coins are tossed simultaneously. Complete the following activity to write the sample space and the given events A and B in the set form:
Event A: To get at least one head.
Event B: To get no head.
Activity:
Two coins are tossed simultaneously.
∴ Sample space is
S = `{square, HT, TH, square}`
Event A: To get at least one head.
∴ A = `{square, HT, TH}`
Event B: To get no head.
∴ B = `{square}`
