Question

how many outcomes are there when rolling two six - sided dice?
a. 18
b. 12
c. 36
d. 24

Explanation:

Step1: Use the multiplication principle

For the first die, there are 6 possible outcomes (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6). For each outcome of the first die, the second die also has 6 possible outcomes.
The total number of outcomes when rolling two dice is \(6\times6\).

Step2: Calculate the product

\(6\times6 = 36\)

Answer:

C. 36
