Answer : Option B
Explanation :
In a simultaneous throw of two dice, we have n(s) = 6 x 6 = 36
Let E = event of getting two number whose sum is at least 10.
Then E = { (4,6), (5,5), (5,6), (6,4), (6,5), (6,6) }
therefore, n(E) = 6
And P(E) = p( getting two numbers whose sum is at least 10)
P(E) = n(E)/n(s) = 6/36 = 1/6
Hence the answer is 1/6
