no. of all possible combination = 6^2=36 No. of combination in which atleast one 5 arises is 11 because on both dice 5 simultaneously arises such combination is considered once. So, the answes are : (i) 25/36 (ii) 11/36 (iii) 1/36

Total possibilities is 36 1) let E be the event of 5 will not come up on either of them n(E)=25 P(E)=25/36 2) let E1 be the event 5 will come up on at least one is n(E1)=11 P(E1)=11/36 3) let E2 be the event 5 will come up at both dice n(E2)=1 P(E2)=1/36
