In a simultaneous throw of two dice, what is the probability of getting a doublet ?

Correct Answer: 1/6

Explanation:

In a simultaneous throw of two dice, n(S) = 6 x 6 = 36


 


Let E = event of getting a doublet = { (1,1), (2,2), (3,3), (4,4), (5,5), (6,6)}


  P ( E ) = n ( E ) n ( S ) = 6 36 = 1 6
