\[P(A \Omega B)=0\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

where A Sum is prime and B two faces six

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeh Raphael is right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If both dice need to show number 6, then the sum of the two dice is 12. 12 is NOT a prime number because it can be divisible by 2, 3, 4, 6, etc. Therefore, the probability is 0. :)
