Two dice are rolled together once. Determine the probability of : a. the occurrence of 3 on the first die or the sum of the two dice is less than or equal to 6 b. the occurrence of 3 on the first die and the sum of the two dice is less than or equal to 6 c. the occurrence of greater than or equal to 5 on the first die and less than or equal to 3 on the second die d. the occurrence of prime number on the first die or the sum of the two dice is odd e. the sum of the two dice is 6 or number 6 on the second die Two balls are taken randomly from a box containing 3 purple balls, 5 green balls, and 2 yellow ball. Determine the probability of : a. getting a purple ball b. getting a yellow ball or a purple ball c. getting a green ball or a purple ball Box A contains 4 red balls and 3 white balls. Box B contains 7 red balls and 2 black balls. One ball is drawn from each box. Determine the probability of : a. getting a red ball from each box b. getting a red ball from Box A and a black ball from Box B c. getting a white ball from Box A and a red ball from Box B d. getting a white ball from Box A and a black ball from Box B
