Probability = Desired outcomes ( m ) / Possible outcomes ( n )
Desired outcomes:
1 + 1, 1 + 2, 1 + 3, 1 + 4, 1 + 6,
2 + 1 , 2 + 2, 2 + 3, 2 + 5,
3 + 1, 3 + 2, 3 + 4,
4 + 1, 4 + 3
5 + 2,
6 + 1.
m = 16
Possible outcomes : 6² = 36,  n = 36
P ( A ) = 16/ 36 = 0.4444...≈ 0.444
Answer: A ) 0.444

1 + 1, 1 + 2, 1 + 3, 1 + 4, 1 + 6,

2 + 1 , 2 + 2, 2 + 3, 2 + 5,

3 + 1, 3 + 2, 3 + 4,

4 + 1, 4 + 3

5 + 2,

6 + 1.

m = 16

Possible outcomes : 6² = 36,  n = 36

P ( A ) = 16/ 36 = 0.4444...≈ 0.444

Answer: A ) 0.444
