    Peter throws two different dice together and finds the product of the two numbers obtained. Rina throws a die and squares the number obtained.
    Who has the better chance to get the number 25.

    Answer:

    Total possible events in case of peter is 36 favourable outcome is (5, 5)
    So                                            \[n(E)=1\]     
    So                P (getting 25 as product)\[=\frac{1}{36}\]
    While total possible event in case of Rina is 6
    Favourable outcome is 5
                               \[n(E)=1\]
    So        P (square is 25)\[=\frac{1}{6}\]
    As \[\frac{1}{6}>\frac{1}{36}\], so Rina has better chance.
