Asked by | 16th Feb, 2009, 07:35: AM
the only possible pairs are
(5,5),(5,6) as 5 must appear on the first die
We know that the sample space of this experiment has 36 elements.
Where S = sample space={(1,1),(1,2)...(1,6)
(2,1)(2,2,)...(2,6)
.
.
(6,1),(6,2)....(6,6)}
Hence required probability=2/36=1/18
