    Two dice are thrown. What is the probability that the sum of the faces equals or exceeds 10?

    A) 1/12

    B) ¼

    C) 1/3

    D) 1/6

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] Let E be the sum of the face equals or exceeds. Then, \[E=\{(5,5),(4,6),(6,4),(5,6),(6,5),(6,6)\}\] \[\therefore n(E)=6\] Hence, \[P(E)=\frac{n(E)}{n(S)}=\frac{6}{36}=\frac{1}{6}\]
