Step-by-step explanation

Probability is the likelihood or chance of an event occurring, it can be calculated as follows:

$P(A)=\frac{favourable\text{ outcomes}}{total\text{ outcomes}}$

so

Step 1

favourbale outcomes

as the sum of th etwo number must be same, the favourable outcomes are:

$\begin{gathered} 5\text{ and 1} \\ 4\text{ and 2} \\ 3\text{ and 3} \\ 1\text{ and 5} \\ 2\text{ and 4} \\ so,\text{ there are 5 favourable outputs} \end{gathered}$

b) total outcomes

the total combinatios is the product of the outputs for each dice, so

$\begin{gathered} 1\text{ dice= 6 outputs} \\ 2\text{ dice= 6*6=36} \end{gathered}$

so, there are 36 total outcomes,

c) finally, replace in the formula

$\begin{gathered} P(A)=\frac{favourable\text{outcomes}}{total\text{outcomes}} \\ P(A)=(5)/(36) \end{gathered}$

therefore, the answer is

$B)\text{ }(5)/(36)$

I hope this helps you
