Two diced are rolled. What is the probability that the sum of two numbers on the dice will be 4? 11/121/40
1 answer:
Each die has 6 possible outcomes (the numbers from 1 to 6).
If we roll two dices, the total number of outcomes is 6 * 6 = 36.
From these outcomes, the ones that have a sum of 4 are:
(1, 3), (2, 2) and (3, 1).
So, if we have 3 wanted outcomes from a total of 36, the probability is:
Therefore the correct option is the second one.

False; consider as a counterexample the function <em>f</em> : ℝ→ℝ defined by
Clearly <em>f</em> approaches -3 as <em>x</em> gets closer to -2, but neither limit from either side is equal to the function's value at <em>x</em> = 2 (that is, -3 ≠ 0), so <em>f</em> is not continuous.
