MCQ
Two dice are rolled simultaneously. The probability that the sum of the numbers on the faces is $9$ is :
  • A
    $\frac{5}{9}$
  • $\frac{1}{9}$
  • C
    $\frac{4}{9}$
  • D
    $\frac{2}{9}$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\frac{1}{9}$
Number of possible outcomes $= \{(3, 6), (5, 4), (4, 5), (6, 3)\} = 4$
Number of Total outcomes $= 6 \times 6 = 36$
$\therefore$ Required Probability $=\frac{4}{36}=\frac{1}{9}$
