In a Throw of a pair of dice, the Probability of the Same Number on Each Die is (a) 1/6 (b) 1/3 (c) 1/2 (d) 5/6

In a throw of a pair of dice, the probability of the same number on each die is 

(a) `1/6` 

(b) `1/3` 

(c) `1/2` 

(d) `5/6`

(a) `1/6`

Explanation:

Total Number of outcomes = 36

Number of Out comes of same number on each die = 6


Probability of same number on each die = `"Number of Out comes of same number on each die"/"Total Number of outcomes"`

= `6/36`

= `1/6`


So, the probability of the same number on each die is 1/6.
