Question

Sarah rolls 2 fair dice and adds the results from each.

Work out the probability of getting a total less than 2.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Multiples of 5 = 5 and 10

Ways to roll a 5 = (1,4) ( 4,1) (2,3) (3,2)

Ways to roll a 10 = (5,5) (4,6) (6,4)

We have 7 possible outcomes for a multiple of 5...and there are 36 possible outcomes in total

So P (multiple of 5) = 7 / 36

Answer 2

0/6

Explanation:

because there are the numbers from 1-6 and no matter what you add you cant get it lower than 2 (1+1)
