Question

Two dice are thrown. The probability of getting a pair of even prime number is : 

(i) 1/3

(ii) 0 

(iii) 1/36

(iv) 1/12

Answer 1

Answer is (iii)

Probability of getting 2 even prime number on one dice = 1/6

Probability of getting 2 an even number on other dice = 1/6

∴ Probability that 2 even prime number is found when a pair of dice is tossed

= 1/6 x 1/6 = 1/36
