Question

A standard pair of six sided dice is rolled what is the probability of rolling a sum less than 10 express your answer as a fraction or decimal number rounded to four decimal places

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we will use the table below

The total number of sample space is given below as

`n(S)=36`

The total number on the sum table of the two die that is less than 10 is

`n(R)=30`

From the image below, it can be indicated

Hence,

The probability of rolling a sum less than 10 will be

`(n(R))/(n(S))=(30)/(36)=(5)/(6)`

Hence,

The final answer is

`\Rightarrow(5)/(6)`
