In a dice there are six faces with numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
So, when two dice are thrown, then we have two faces of dice (one of each) show any two combination of numbers from 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Thus, the number of elements in sample space =` 6^2` = 36
S= {(1, 1),(1, 2),(1,3),(1, 4),(1,5),(1, 6), (2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3), (2, 4), (2, 5), (2, 6), ...
