\n" );
document.write( "

\n" );
document.write( "P(E) = 1/6,   as the up face on the blue die is independent of the red die.
\r
\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "P(F) = 1/2,   as 1/2 of all the outcomes are even sums.
\n" );
document.write( "

\n" );
document.write( "P(E∩F) = 1/12,    3 out of 36 possible outcomes fall in the E∩F case.
\n" );
document.write( "
 \n" );
document.write( "

\n" );
