document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Recall that the outcome of rolling a die is any of 6 integer numbers from 1 to 6 inclusive, \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "with the uniform probability of  for each outcome.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Therefore,  P(getting 3 or 4 on the first toss) =  = \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "and         P(getting 1 or 2 on the second toss) = ,  again.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "The events/outcomes are INDEPENDENT on the first and the second tosses;\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "therefore, the final probability under the question is the    = .    ANSWER\r\n" );
