Question

14. You roll a blue number cube and a green number cube.Find P a number less than 2 on the blue cube and an oddnumber on the green cube.146112نا

Answer 1

`(1)/(12)`

Step-by-step explanation

We want to find the probability that a number less than 2 is rolled on the blue cube and an odd number is rolled on the green cube.

On a number cube, there are six numbers and only one number less than 2.

This implies that the probability that a number less than 2 is rolled on the blue cube is:

`P(b)=(1)/(6)`

On a number cube, there are three odd numbers.

This implies that the probability that an odd number is rolled on the green cube is:

`(g)=(3)/(6)`

To find the probability that a number less than 2 is rolled on the blue cube and an odd number is rolled on the green cube, find the product of the probabilities above:

`\begin{gathered} P=P(b)*P(g) \\ \\ P=(1)/(6)*(3)/(6) \\ \\ P=(1)/(12) \end{gathered}`

That is the answer.
