Question

Two dice are thrown at the same time. Find the probability that the sum of the two numbers appearing on the top of the dice is 13. 

Answer 1

The number of possible outcomes = 6 × 6 = 36 

There is no outcome favourable to the event E = the sum of two numbers is 13.  

n(E) = 0 

Hence, `P(E) = (n(E))/(n(S)) = 0/36`
