A dice is rolled twice. What is the probability of getting sum 9?

  • A.2/3
  • B.1/3
  • C.1/9
  • D.3/9

Answer: C

Two rolls give 36 outcomes. Those totalling 9 are

\[ (3,6),\ (4,5),\ (5,4),\ (6,3) \]

\[ P = \frac{4}{36} = \frac{1}{9} \]

The order of the two rolls matters, so \( (3,6) \) and \( (6,3) \) are separate outcomes; treating them as one would halve the count.
