    In a simultaneous throw of a pair of dice, find the probability of getting prime numbers on both the faces.

    A) \[\frac{14}{36}\]                                   

    B) \[\frac{11}{36}\]

    C) \[\frac{1}{4}\]              

    D) \[\frac{11}{15}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[n\,\,(S)=6\times 6=36\] and E = Event of getting prime numbers on both the dice
    \[=\{(2,2)(2,3)(2,5)(3,2)(3,3)(3,5)(5,2)(5,3)(5,5)\}\]
    \[P\,\,(E)=\frac{n\,\,(E)}{n\,\,(S)}=\frac{9}{36}=\frac{1}{4}\]
