What is the probability of rolling less than 3? HINT [See Example 3.]
An experiment is given together with an event. Find the (modeled) probability of each event, assuming that the dice are distinguishable and fair, and that what is observed are the numbers uppermost.
Two dice are rolled; the numbers add to 4.
