Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{23}{36}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Number of possible outcomes of event when 2 dice are thrown are \(6^2=36\) Outcomes in which number are not coprimes \(\begin{aligned} &=\{(2,2),(2,4),(2,6),(3,3),(3,6),(4,2),(4,4) \\ &(4,6),(5,5),(6,2),(6,3),(6,4),(6,6)\} \end{aligned}\) Favourable outcomes (getting coprimes…
