Answer: 2 25 52

Step-by-step explanation: They used a base of 60

from <u>right to left</u> a.60⁰, b.60¹, c.60², etc.

As 60³ = 216000 > 8752, we should start with 60².

As 60² = 3600, 8752/3600 = 2,43, we use 2.60²

8752 - 2.60² = 8752 - 7200 = 1552

1552/60 = 25,87; we use 25.60

1552 - 25.60 = 1552 - 1500 = 52

∴ 8752 = 2 25 52

The sample space has 36 possible pairs from 1,1 1,2 1,3 up to 6,5 and 6,6

(a). Three pairs add to 4 1,3 2,2 and 3,1 so P(4) = 3/36 = 1/12

(b). 6 pairs add to 7 so P(7) = 6/36 = 1/6

(c) 15 pairs add to less than 7 so P(<7) = 15/36 = 5/12
