Question

Two dice are thrown at the same time. What is the probability that the sum of the two numbers appearing on the top of the dice is 13?

• A. 1
• B. \(\frac{1}{2}\)
• C. \(\frac{2}{3}\)
• D. 0

Hint:

The maximum sum of two dice rolls is 12, so sums greater than this, such as 13, are impossible.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The maximum sum that can appear when two dice are rolled is \(12\) (if both dice show 6). Thus, it is impossible for the sum of the two dice to be 13. Therefore, the probability is 0.
