Question
Two six faced balanced dice are thrown simultaneously. State the sample space of this random experiment and hence write the sets showing the following events :
$(1)$ Event $=$ The sum of numbers on the dice is $7.$
$(2)$ Event $=$ The sum of numbers on the dice is less than $4.$
$(3)$ Event $=$ The sum of numbers on the dice is divisible by $3.$
$(4)$ Event $=$ The sum of numbers on the dice is more than $12.$

Answer

The sample space for throwing two six faced balanced dice simultaneously is as follows:  
$U = \{(1,1); (1,2); (1,3); (1,4); (1,5); (1,6)$  
  $(2,1); (2,2); (2,3); (2,4); (2,5); (2,6)$
  $(3,1); (3,2); (3,3); (3,4); (3,5); (3,6)$  
  $(4,1); (4,2); (4,3); (4,4); (4,5); (4,6)$  
  $(5,1); (5,2); (5,3); (5,4); (5,5); (5,6)$  
  $(6,1); (6,2); (6,3); (6,4); (6,5); (6,6)\}$  
$(1)$ Event $=$ The sum of numbers on the dice $=$ is $7.$  
  $= \{(1,6), (2,5), (3,4), (4,3), (5,2), (6,1)\}$  
$(2)$ Event $=$ The sum of numbers on the dice is less than $4.$  
  $= \{(1,1), (1,2), (2,1)\}$  
$(3)$ Event $=$ The sum of numbers on the dice is divisible by $3.$  
  $= \{(1,2), (1,5), (2,1), (2,4), (3,3), (3,6), (4,2), (4,5), (5,1), (5,4), (6,3), (6,6)\}$  
$(4)$ Event $=$ The sum of numbers on the dice is more than $12.$  
  $= \{\ \}$ OR
