In a simultaneous throw of a pair of dice, find the probability of getting a sum greater than 9

उत्तर

We know that in a single throw of two dices, the total number of possible outcomes is (6 × 6) = 36.
Let S be the sample space.
Then n(S) = 36

 Let E5 = event of getting a sum greater than 9
 Then E5 = {(4, 6), (5, 5), (5, 6), (6, 4), (6, 5), (6, 6)}
     i.e. n (E5) = 6

\[\therefore P\left( E_5 \right) = \frac{n\left( E_5 \right)}{n\left( S \right)} = \frac{3}{36} = \frac{1}{6}\]
