Question

You roll a red-sided die and a white-sided die. Find the probability. P(red is less than 3 and white is less than 3) Simplify the answer.

Answer 1

1 on 3

Explanation:

The red dice has 6 faces. The number you have to obtain is less than 3. So your answers must be 1 and 2. The numbers 1 and 2 are two solutions out of six. Now the same goes with the white dice. Two solutions out of six. You combine them and obtain 4 on 12. Then, you reduce the answer in minimal terms and finally obtain 1 on 3.
