Question

Two dice are rolled. Enter the size of the set that corresponds to the event that the sum of the dice is 9.

Answer 1

1/16

Explanation:

dice = 2

possible outcomes for 1 dice = 6

possible outcomes when two dice are rolled = 2⁶ = 64 outcomes

possible events when the sum of the dice is 9 =

(3, 6), (4, 5), (5, 4), (6, 3) = 4 outcomes

size of the set = 4/64 = 2/32 = 1/16
