Answer:
Option A
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability:
When we roll a pair of dice, the total number of possibilities is 36.
Chances of getting sum of the dice less than 4 = {(1,1); (1,2); (2,1)}
Number of chances of getting sum less than 4 = 3
[tex]\sf P(getting \ sum \ less \ than \ 4) = \dfrac{3}{36}[/tex]
[tex]\sf =\dfrac{1}{12}[/tex]
Final answer:
The theoretical probability of rolling a sum less than 4 with two dice is 1/12.
Explanation:
Probability of Rolling Two Dice:
When rolling two dice, there are a total of 36 possible outcomes.
Let's find the outcomes where the sum of the dice is less than 4:
- The outcome of rolling a 1 on both dice (1+1) is 1.
- The outcome of rolling a 1 on the first die and a 2 on the second die (1+2) is 1.
- The outcome of rolling a 2 on the first die and a 1 on the second die (2+1) is 1.
The total number of outcomes where the sum of the dice is less than 4 is 3.
Since there are 36 possible outcomes, the probability of rolling a sum less than 4 is 3/36, which simplifies to 1/12.
