Apoorv throws two dice once and computes the product of the numbers appearing on the dice. Peehu throws one die and squares the number that appears on it. Who has the better chance of getting the number ? Why?
Step 1 - Probability Apoorv getting the number
Apoorv throws two dice at once.
The total number of outcomes
Number of favorable outcomes for getting the product
Probability for Apoorv getting the number
Step 2- Probability Peehu getting the number
Peehu throws one die,
Hence, the total number of outcomes
Number of favorable outcomes for getting square
Probability for Peehu getting the number
Since,
Hence, Peehu has a better chance of getting the number
