A standard six-sided die is rolled twice. What is the probability that the product of the rolls is 3 or 12?     

 

How to get   3  .......     1, 3    3, 1                           2  ways     

How to get 12  .......     2, 6    6, 2    3, 4    4, 3       4  ways     

                                                                 total        6  ways     

 

Number of total possible combinations  6 x 6  =   36  ways     

 

                              So the probability is  6 / 36  =  1 / 6
