  1. A \(\frac{7}{10}\)
  2. B \(\frac{3}{10}\)
  3. C \(\frac{4}{15}\)
  4. D \(\frac{2}{5}\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{3}{10}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Total sample space \(=6^3=216\). Here, combinations of total som to be 15 is \((3,6,6) \times 3+\) \((4,5,6) \times 3 !+(5,5,5)\). Total combinations \(=3+6+1=10\). Let event \(\mathrm{E}\) and \(\mathrm{f}\) be the 5 does not opper on axy dice and Total combinations of sum to…
