Question 976210: An ordinary (fair) die is a cube with the numbers 1 through 6 on the sides (represented by painted spots). Imagine that such a die is rolled twice in succession and that the face values of the two rolls are added together. This sum is recorded as the outcome of a single trial of a random experiment.
Event A: The sum is greater than 8.
Event B: The sum is an odd number. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! the probability of each number is
2=1/36
6=5/36
7=6/36
8=5/36
12=1/36
Probability >8 = (4+3+2+1)/36=10/36=5/18
Odd number (2+4+6+4+2)=18/36=(1/2)
