If two different dices are rolled together, calculate the probability of getting an even number on both dice.

Two dice can be thrown in 6 × 6 = 36 ways

We have to calculate the probability of getting an even number on both dice.

Even numbers on the dice can be obtained as

{(2, 2), (2, 4), (2, 6), (4, 2), (4, 4), (4, 6), (6, 2), (6, 4), (6, 6)}

Number of ways of getting an even number on both dice = 9 ways

We know that the theoretical (classical) probability of an event E, written as P (E), is defined as P (E) = Number of outcomes favorable to E / Number of all possible outcomes of the experiment

∴ P (even numbers) = 9/36 = �

Ans. The probability of getting an even number on both dice is �.
