P(TV or C)=P(TV)+p(C)-P(Both)
\n" ); document.write( "1=0.9+0.6-P(Both)
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, P(Both)=0.5
\n" ); document.write( "Probability choose one with a computer is 0.6
\n" ); document.write( "If they have a TV, they fit into the category of having both.
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, 0.6*P(TV)=0.5
\n" ); document.write( "P(TV)=0.5/0.5=0.83333 or 5/6

\n" ); document.write( "For Dice, The probability of a 3 is 2/36, 36 ways to roll and 1/2 or 2/1. So it is 33/36=11/12.
\n" ); document.write( "The same number is 1/6, 11,22,33,44,55,66
\n" ); document.write( "A sum of 8 is 5/36. 2/6,3/5,4/4,5/3,6/2

\n" ); document.write( "1,2-1/6 (5); 2/3-2/6 (4), 3/4-3/6 (3), 4/5-4/6 (2), 5/6 (1). That is 15/36 or 5/12.

\n" ); document.write( "A sum of 20 is 0.
\n" ); document.write( "3,4 or 6,2 is 2/36 or 1/18, assuming order matters, otherwise it is 1/9.
\n" ); document.write( "Two even numbers are 2/2,4/4,6/6 or 3/36 or 1/12
\n" ); document.write( " A sum less than 8 is (1/36, 2/36,3/36,4/36,5/36,6/36)=21/36 or 7/12.
\n" ); document.write( "A sum greater than 8 is 4/36,3/36,2/36,1/36=10/36=5/18
