Question

A blue die and a red die are thrown. Each die has six sides, labeled 1 through 6. The dice are fair, so each outcome is equally likely. What is the probability that the sum of the values on the two dice equals 6?

Answer 1

Answer:0.138

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A blue die and a red die is rolled once such that each face is marked with different number

Favorable outcome of getting 6 is

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

Total outcomes =36

Probability of getting a sum of 6 is $=\frac{5}{36}=0.138$
