Deepanshu Gupta  (8 years ago)

total possible combinations=(2,2)(2,4)(2,6)(4,2)(4,4)(4,6)(3,3)(6,2)(6,4)(6,6)=10
so probability=10/16=5/8

pratibha deshwal  (8 years ago)

total outcome will be 16, and to get even number it should be a combination of (2,2)(2,4)(2,6). and so on
counting to 10
therefore 10/16=5/8

First can have 4 outcomes
Second can also have 4 outcomes
So total combination should be 4×4=16.
Now, even+even=even and odd+odd=even
So 3 even numbers . Outcome of even number one on dice is 3. Same in the second one
So total possible outcome is 3×3=9
Now last digit i.e odd is 3. As combination of 3 can be with 3 only... as odd+odd=even
So finally 9+1=10 is total number of outcome for even.
So it would be 10/16 or 5/8 (possible outcome/total outcome).

n(e)=(2,2)(2,4)(2,6)(4,2)(4,4)(4,6)(3,3)(6,2)(6,4)(6,6)=10 ,p(e)=16
probability=n(e)/P(e)=10/16=5/8

shiba  (8 years ago)

We know ,
even+even=even or odd +odd =odd
so out of given numbers(2,3,4,6)...there are only 3 even numbers ..so possibility of getting even number when two dies are thrown is [(2,4) ,(2,6),(4,2) ,(4,6) ,(6,4),(6,2)].....

....so total no of ways to get even number is 6.
and total nof of possible outcome is 4*4=16
so probability of this event is =6/16 i.e 3/8

i hope this answer is helpful
