Zara and Sue play the following game. Each of them roll a fair six-sided die once. If Sue’s number is greater than or equal to Zara’s number, she wins the game. But if Sue rolled a number smaller than Zara’s number, then Zara rolls the die again. If Zara’s second roll gives a number that is less than or equal to Sue’s number, the game ends with a draw. If Zara’s second roll gives a number larger than Sue’s number, Zara wins the game. Find the probability that Zara wins the game and the probability that Sue wins the game. Note: Sue only rolls a die once. The second roll, if the game goes up to that point, is made only by Zara.
