A. P(drawing the King of Hearts given it’s a face card.) 1/12

B. P(rolling a sum of 3 on two fair six sided dice) 2/36 = 1/18

C. P(rolling a sum of 5 on two fair six sided dice) = 4/36 = 1/9

D. P(drawing a queen given it’s a face card) = 4/12 = 1/3

E. P(rolling a sum of 4 on two fair six sided dice = 3/36 = 1/12
