Two different dice are tossed together. Find the probability:
(i) of getting a doublet
(ii) of getting a sum 10, of the numbers on the two dice.


The outcomes when two dice are thrown together are
(1,1), (1,2), (1,3), (1,4), (1,5), (1,6)
(2,1), (2,2), (2,3), (2,4), (2,5), (2,6)
(3,1), (3,2), (3,3), (3,4), (3,5), (3,6)
(4,1), (4,2), (4,3), (4,4), (4,5), (4,6)
(5,1), (5,2), (5,3), (5,4), (5,5), (5,6)
(6,1), (6,2), (6,3), (6,4), (6,5), (6,6)
Total number of outcomes = 36
n (s) = 36

i) A = getting a doublet
A = {(1,1), (2,2), (3,3),(4,4), (5,5), (6,6)}

n(A) = 6
 P(A) = n(A)n(S) = 636 =16

B = getting sum of numbers as 10.
B = {(6, 4), (4, 6), (5, 5)}
n(B) =3

 P (B) = n(B)n(S) = 336 = 112
