Expert Solution

Step 1
HERE GIVEN,
two distinguishable dice are rolled
and both number are rolled as prime
here there are total 6*6 = 36 outcomes when rolled 2 dice
here probability of each number on die = 1/6
rolling two die is independent event that is outcome on first die not depend on outcome on second die
so here we can directly do multiplication for probability
that is for example p(2,2) = (1/6)*(1/6) = 1/36
