Question
If two dice are thrown, then the probability of getting the sum as a prime number is____.
Hint:
Probability of an event = Number of favourable outcome / Total number of outcomes
The correct answer is:
Here, we have to find the probability of getting a prime number on adding the outcomes when two dice are thrown.
Total number of outcomes = 36
Number of favourable outcome = 15
Therefore, P( sum as prime) = 15/36
= 5/12
Hence, the correct option is (b).
0 ≤ P(E) ≤ 1 . Sum of probabilities of all events = 1
