Question 82

When two different dice are rolled together, what is the probability that the sum of the numbers coming up on the two dice is 9?

Solution

The total number of possibilities the two dice can produce together is 36.

To have 9 as the sum on the two dice, the possible combinations are: (3,6)(6,3)(4,5)(5,4)

Hence, the probability is 4/36, which is 1/9.
