The probability of an event E is :

PE=number of favourable outcomestotal number of outcomes

The sample space when two dice are rolled is :

S={(1,1)  (1,2)   (1,3)   (1,4)   (1,5)   (1,6)         (2,1)  (2,2)   (2,3)   (2,4)   (2,5)   (2,6)         (3,1)  (3,2)   (3,3)   (3,4)   (3,5)   (3,6)         (4,1)  (4,2)   (4,3)   (4,4)   (4,5)   (4,6)         (5,1)  (5,2)   (5,3)   (5,4)   (5,5)   (5,6)         (6,1)  (6,2)   (6,3)   (6,4)   (6,5)   (6,6)}
