Question

Philoid · Accepted Answer

Total numbers of elementary events are: 6 x 6 = 36

Let E be the event of getting an even number on both the dice

Favorable outcomes are: (2,2) , (2,4), (2,6), (4,2), (4,4), (4,6), (6,2), (6,4), (6,6)

Numbers of favorable outcomes are = 9

P (getting even number on both dice) = P (E) = 9/36 = 1/4
