Question

Two six-sided dice are rolled. Order the probability of each event from least (on top) to greatest (on bottom).

1. The sum is not 12
2. The sum is odd
3. The sum is less than 5
4. The sum is not 7

Answer 1

I will not answer this question for you, but I will tell you how to do it.

Make a 2 way table, 1 to 6 across the top and 1 to 6 along the left.

At the intersection of each row and column put the sum of the column # + the row #.

Then for each requested outcome count the number of entries which meet the criteria.

This number divided by 36 is the probability of each event.

Then you can order them.
