A pair of dice is thrown. If the two numbers appearing are different , find the probability thet
the sum of points exceeds 8.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let b be the event that sum of the points exceeds 8.
`therefore` B={ (3,6),(4,5),(5,4),(6,3),(5,6),(6,5),(4,6),(6,4) }
`therefore P (B) = absB/absS=8/30`
