Dice are small cubes, held in the hand and then dropped or thrown on a flat surface, as part of a game. Each surface of a die has a number of dots, ranging from one dot to six dots. The number of dots showing on the top surface is said to be how the die lands.
(a) If you throw two dice, is the probability of seeing a “1” on the first die independent of the probability of seeing a “1” on the second die?
(b) If you throw two dice, what is the probability that you will see a “6” on the first die AND a “6” on the second die?
(c) If you throw two dice, what is the probability that you will see a “6” on the first die OR a “6” on the second die?
