Question

Jayanti throws a pair of dice and records the product of the numbers appearing on the dice. Pihu throws 1 dice and records the squares the number that appears on it. Who has the better chance of getting the number 36? Justify?

Answer 1

For Jayanti,
Favourable outcome is (6,6) i.e, 1
Probability(getting the number 36) `= (1)/(36)`
For Pihu,
Favourable outcome is 6 i.e,
Probability(getting the number 36) `=(1)/(6)`
`therefore` Phiu has the better chance.
