Question

The table below shows all of the possible outcomes for rolling two six-sided number cubes. A table with 36 possible outcomes. There are 9 desired outcomes. What is the probability of rolling an even number first and an odd number second? StartFraction 1 over 9 EndFraction StartFraction 1 over 6 EndFraction One-fourth One-half Mark this and return Save and Exit

Answer 1

The probability of rolling an even number first and an odd number second is; One Fourth

How to find the probability of rolling a number?

As two cubes are 6 sided, the total number of possibilities as seen in the attached table are;

6 * 6 = 36 possible numbers

Now in those possibilities, the first number will be even and the second number will be odd.  From the the table, such possible pairs are,  

(2,1), (2,3), (2,5), (4,1), (4,3), (4,5), (6,1), (6,3), (6,5)

Therefore, we can see we have a total of 9 sets with the combination of first number even and second number odd.  So, the probability of rolling with this combination will be; 9/36 = 1/4
