Two dices are thrown simultaneously. What is the probability of getting two numbers whose product is odd?

Two dices are thrown simultaneously. What is the probability of getting two numbers whose product is odd? Correct Answer 1/4

Given:

Number of dices = 2

Calculation:

Total number of results when two dices are thrown = 62 = 36

For the product to be odd, both the numbers have to be odd.

∴Favourable results = {(1, 1), (1, 3), (1, 5), (3, 1), (3, 3), (3, 5), (5, 1), (5, 3), (5, 5)}

Number of favourable results = 9

∴ Probability of getting two numbers whose product is odd = 9/36 = 1/4

There are two rows, each containing 3 numbers. Some rules are given below to be used for obtaining the resultant number for each row separately. Apply the rules for each row from left to right and answer the question. Rules: i. If an even number is followed by an even number, the first is to be subtracted from the second. ii. If an odd number is followed by an odd number, both are to be added. iii. If an odd number is followed by an even number, the even number is to be subtracted from the square of the odd number. iv. If an even number is followed by an odd number, the odd number is to be subtracted from the even number. Row I: 28, 19, 12 Row II: 13, 7, 32 What is the average of the resultant numbers of the first row and the second row?
