Question

You roll a pair of dice. What is the probability of not getting a double on the dice?

• A. $\frac{5}{6}$
• B. $\frac{1}{6}$
• C. $\frac{2}{6}$
• D. $\frac{7}{6}$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $\frac{5}{6}$

There are $6$ ways to roll pair of dice.

$P$ (doubles) $=$ $\frac{6}{36}=\frac{1}{6}$$P$ (not doubles) $=$ $1-\frac{6}{36}=\frac{5}{6}$
