Solution: Probability can be defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes of an event. For an experiment having n number of outcomes, the number of favorable outcomes can be denoted by : Let ‘x’ be the number on the first dice ‘Y’ be the number on second dice First dice showing odd number = {1,3,5} Second dice also has odd number = {1,3,5} The probability that the first dice shows an odd number = 3/6. The probability that the second dice shows an odd number = 3/6. The possible results are (1,1), (1,3), (1,5), (3,1), (3,3), (3,5), (5,1), (5,3), (5,5). The probability that both dice show an odd number is (3/6) × (3/6) = 9/36 = 1/4 Therefore, the probability of getting an odd number in both dice is 1/4. Summary: If you roll two fair six-sided dice, the probability that both dice show an odd number is 1/4. |
