      Question

      Two fair dice are rolled simultaneously. The probability

      of getting a sum of ______ on the faces of dice is ______. The values given in which of the following options will fill the blanks in the same order in which is it given to make the statement true: A. 5, (1/9) B. 9, (1/9) C. 10, (1/12)
      A Only (A) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Only (B) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Only (C) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Only (A) and (B) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E All are true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      A. 5, (1/9) Number of favourable outcomes = (1, 4), (4, 1), (2, 3), (3, 2) Total outcomes = 36 Therefore, the probability of getting a sum of 5 on the faces of dice is (4/36) = (1/9). B. 9, (1/9) Number of favourable outcomes = (3, 6), (6, 3), (4, 5), (5, 4) Total outcomes = 36 Therefore, the probability of getting a sum of 9 on the faces of dice is (4/36) = (1/9). C. 10, (1/12) Number of favourable outcomes = (4, 6), (6, 4), (5, 5) Total outcomes = 36 Therefore, the probability of getting a sum of 10 on the faces of dice is (3/36) = (1/12).
