Answer:
The probability that the sum of the numbers rolled is either a multiple of 3 or an even number is 24/36 = 2/3
The two events are mutually exclusive
Step-by-step explanation:
we first need to create a table of the sample space from the experiment, the sum of the numbers rolled. Find the attached for a depiction of the possible outcomes.
The probability that the sum of the numbers rolled is either a multiple of 3 or an even number will be given by counting the numbers that are either even or multiples of 3 and then dividing by the number of possible outcomes, 36.
In our case this will be;
24/36 = 2/3
