Answers (1)

Answer: \frac{1}{4}

Given: A die is tossed twice. Find the probability of getting a number greater than 3 on each toss.

Hint: Probability=\frac{No\: of\: outcomes}{Total \: Outcomes}

Solution:

Let, S= Total  no. of dice in two throws

        \mathrm{S}=\left\{\begin{array}{l} (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) \end{array}\right\}

         n\left ( S\right )=36

        E=Getting a number greater than 3 on each toss

         \begin{aligned} &\mathrm{E}=\left\{\begin{array}{l} (4,4),(4,5),(4,6),(5,4),(5,5) \\ ,(5,6),(6,4),(6,5),(6,6) \end{array}\right\} \\ &\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{E})=9 \\ &\begin{aligned} \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{E}) &=\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{E})}{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{S})} \\ &=\frac{9}{36}=\frac{1}{4} \end{aligned} \end{aligned}
