A fair five-sided spinner has sides numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Raj spins the spinner and throws two fair
dice. He calculates his score as follows.
• If the spinner lands on an even-numbered side, Raj multiplies the two numbers showing on
the dice to get his score.
• If the spinner lands on an odd-numbered side, Raj adds the numbers showing on the dice to
get his score.
Given that Raj’s score is 12, find the probability that the spinner landed on an even-numbered side.

Ya thats the question

firstly if spinner lands on even no. raj multiplies both the numbers he got on the dice and if the spinner lands on odd if adds the 2 nos. Probability spinner lands on even no.=(2/5) as there are two even nos. Probability spinner lands on odd no.=(3/5) so now that u noe dat u find the probability of getting a 12 when you multiply 2 numbers on the dice (4,3) , (3,4) ,(6,2), (2,6) =4/36 it is over 36 cuz two dice are thrown now find the probability of getting a 12 when addind two numbers on the dice and that is only (6,6) =1/36 and now u find the answers ut will ((2/5)*(4/36))/((2/5)*(4/36)+(3/5)*(1/36))=8/11
HOPE U GET IT !!!!BEST OF LUCK

Is it me or the papers have got tougher from 2010 onwards

you just have to practice more and more and then you will see how easy it is

 

[airbennder]

I did practice but the 2010 and 2011's papers are too tough. the previous years are too easy......

 

[airbennder]

you just have to practice more and more and then you will see how easy it is

Which means that our paper would also be tough as P1
