Given, a die is numbered in such a way that its faces show the 1,2,4,4,6,6. Reema threw the die two times, total score in two throws noted as the following table given below.
There are 6 sides of a dice. Hence for the favourable outcomes all the possible outcomes from the 6 sides should be considered.
Find the total outcomes the total number of outcomes is given as

+ 1 2 4 4 6 6 1 2 3 5 5 7 7 2 3 4 6 6 8 8 4 5 6 8 8 10 10 4 5 6 8 8 10 10 6 7 8 10 10 12 12 6 7 8 10 10 12 12  

 When 2 dices will be thrown together, the outcomes will come as 6×6=36   Hence, the number of times the sum is odd is 10.
Probability of getting an odd number,
  Q( Getting an odd no.)= 10 36 = 5 18  
She gets the probability that the total score is odd is 5 18  .
