suppose a fair die is rolled twice, what is the probability that the sum of the two outcomes is 6, given that the sum is even

The area of mathematics known as probability deals with numerical representations of the likelihood that an event will occur or that a statement is true.

An event's probability is a number between 0 and 1, where, roughly speaking, 0 denotes the event's impossibility and 1 denotes certainty.

The probability is computed by dividing the total number of possible outcomes by the number of possible ways the event could occur.

We know,

Probability = Number of events / Total no. of favourable outcomes

If we through two dice then ,

Total number of favourable outcomes = 36

Here, we need the sum of the two outcomes is 6 is

(1, 5) , (2, 4), (3, 3), (4, 2), (5, 1)

So, the number of events = 5

P(of getting sum 6) = 5/ 36

Hence, Probability that that sum of the two dice outcomes is 6 is 5/36
