Question

Two dice are thrown simultaneously. Find the probability of getting prime numbers on each
die.

Answer 1

Dear student,
Two dice are rolled simultaneously,
then Total outcomes =6×6 =36
Prime number of both the side =(2,2),(2,3),(2,5),(3,2),(3,3),(3,5),(5,2),(5,3),(5,5)=9
Therefore, Probability P(E)= $\frac{favourableoutcomes}{Totalnumberofoutcomes}$
= $\frac{9}{36}$
= $\frac{1}{4}$
Regards.
