Solution
The correct option is D12 Even numbers on the dice are : 2, 4 and 6. ∴Favorable outcomes(total no. of even numbers) = 3 Probability P(E) = Number of outcomes favorable to ENumber of all possible outcomes of the experiment
Let E be the event of getting an even number =36=12
Event F, (Probability of not getting an even number) is the complement event of E.(Sum of probabilites of two complements events is always 1.)
