Problema Solution

Grace tosses a pair of regular dice, each numbered 1 to 6. What is the probability that the result will NOT have number less than 5 on either die?

Answer provided by our tutors

The result will NOT have number less than 5 on either die means that the results can be:

(5, 5), (5, 6), (6, 5), (6, 6)

The total number of events (outcomes) is: 6*6 = 36

Thus the probability is:

P(the result will NOT have number less than 5 on either die) = 4/36

P(the result will NOT have number less than 5 on either die) = 0.1111
