Question

If two dice are thrown, then the probability of getting the sum as a prime number is____.

  1. 5 over 6
  2. 5 over 12
  3. 1 over 6
  4. 3 over 2

hintHint:

Probability of an event = Number of favourable outcome / Total number of outcomes

The correct answer is: 5 over 12


    Here, we have to find the probability of getting a prime number on adding the outcomes when two dice are thrown.
    Total number of outcomes = 36
    Number of favourable outcome = 15
    Therefore, P( sum as prime) = 15/36
    = 5/12
    Hence, the correct option is (b).

    0 ≤ P(E) ≤ 1 . Sum of probabilities of all events = 1
