Answer :

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{36}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability refers to the chance of occurrence of some event.

Outcome refers to the result of the event that occurs.

When a die is thrown once, outcomes are [tex]\left \{ 1,2,3,4,5,6 \right \}[/tex]

Probability of occurrence of each of the events i.e. number appeared on the die when it is thrown is 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or 6  = [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

To find: the probability that one die has the number ''5'' as the outcome and the other die has the number ''1'' as the outcome

Solution: the probability that one die has the number ''5'' as the outcome × the probability that the die has the number ''1'' as the outcome = [tex]\frac{1}{6}\times \frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{36}[/tex]
