When two dice are thrown, the possible
36 outcomes 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) |
We get the sum
9 when pair of outcomes are
(3,6),(6,3)(4,5),(5,4).
So, the probability of getting a total of
9=436=19 We get the sum
10 when pair of outcomes are
(5,5),(6,4)(4,6).
So, the probability of getting a total of
10=336=112 Sum greater than
9, means sum of
10,11,12We get it when the pair of outcomes are
(5,5),(6,4)(4,6);(5,6),(6,5);(6,6).
So, the probability of getting a total more than
9=636=16 We get the sum
8 when pair of outcomes are
(4,4),(5,3),(3,5),(6,2)(2,6).
So, the probability of getting a total of
8=536 Hence,
A−4,B−3,C−1,D−2
