Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 1/36.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: Option 'C' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

the sides of the cubes are numbered 1 through 6,

So,

$P(\text{ getting a 3})=\frac{1}{6}$

if they are both tossed ,

Probability (getting that they will both be a 3) is given by

$=\frac{1}{6}\times \frac{1}{6}\\\\=\frac{1}{36}$

(∵$\\P(\text{A and B})=P(A\cap B)=P(A).P(B)$)

Therefore, Option 'C' is correct.
