Question

Mina tosses two number cubes labeled 1 to 6. What is the probability that the sum is equal to five?

Answer 1

(1,4)

(4,1)

(2,3)

(3,2)

so there are 4 different combinations that equal 5

 6 x 6 = 36 total possible outcomes of the dice

so they have a 4/36 reduces to 1/9 probability of equaling 5
