An experiment consists of throwing two dice and noting their two scores. The sample space could be shown as illustrated in Table 3.5.

Score on second die (Y) Table 3.5 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 * * * * * * 2 * * * * + * Score on first die, X 4 3 * * * + +

From this sample space calculate the following theoretical probabilities to three decimal places: 

(a) P(X = Y); 

(b) P(X + Y = 5);
