The products when throwing two dice which are most probable are 6 and 12 which both appear 4 times 6 = 1x6, 2x3, 3x2, 6x1 and 12 = 2x6, 3x4, 4x3, 6x2.

When the product of the numbers shown on the two dice is calculated, the possible results are:

x 01 02 03 04 05 06

1 01 02 03 04 05 06

2 02 04 06 08 10 12

3 03 06 09 12 15 18

4 04 08 12 16 20 24

5 05 10 15 20 25 30

6 06 12 18 24 30 36

which has 18 possible totals (numbers in parentheses gives number of times they appear):

01 (1), 02 (2), 03 (2), 04 (3), 05 (2), 06 (4)

08 (2), 09 (1), 10 (2), 12 (4), 15 (2), 16 (1)

18 (2), 20 (2), 24 (2), 25 (1), 30 (2), 36 (1)

(I've put zeros before single digit numbers to help the table of numbers line up.)

Why is it helpful to write a number as a product of prime?

When adding or subtracting fractions with different denominators finding the prime product of each denominator helps in finding the lowest common denominator of the given fractions by their lowest common multiple.


What is the probability of tossing an odd number and a tail?

The probability of tossing an odd number (assumed on a die) is 3 in 6 or 1 in 2. The probability of tossing a tail (assumed on a coin) is 1 in 2. Since these are unrelated events, and the question said "and", simply multiply the probabilities to get 1 in 4.

When tossing 2 dice what is the probability of tossing a prime number?
