Question 19(ii)
Two dice are thrown at the same time. Find the probability of getting different number on both dice.

Answer 1

Two dice are thrown at the same time.
So, total number of possible outcomes = 36.
(ii) We have, different number on both dice.
So, number of possible outcomes
=36 - Number of possible outcomes for same number on both dice
=36 - 6 = 30
$\therefore$ Required Probability $=\frac{30}{36}=\frac{5}{6}$
