Two persons $A$ and $B$ are throwing an unbiased six-faced dice alternatively,with the condition that the person who throws $3$ first wins the game. If $A$ starts the game,then the probabilities of $A$ and $B$ winning the game are,respectively:

  • A
    $\frac{6}{11}, \frac{5}{11}$
  • B
    $\frac{5}{11}, \frac{6}{11}$
  • C
    $\frac{8}{11}, \frac{3}{11}$
  • D
    $\frac{3}{11}, \frac{8}{11}$

Football teams $T_1$ and $T_2$ play two games against each other. The outcomes of the two games are independent. The probabilities of $T_1$ winning,drawing,and losing a game against $T_2$ are $\frac{1}{2}$,$\frac{1}{6}$,and $\frac{1}{3}$,respectively. Each team gets $3$ points for a win,$1$ point for a draw,and $0$ points for a loss. Let $X$ and $Y$ denote the total points scored by teams $T_1$ and $T_2$,respectively,after two games.

In a single throw of three dice,the probability of getting a sum at least $5$ is

In a game,two players $A$ and $B$ take turns throwing a pair of fair dice,starting with player $A$. The total score on the two dice in each throw is noted. $A$ wins the game if he throws a total of $6$ before $B$ throws a total of $7$,and $B$ wins the game if he throws a total of $7$ before $A$ throws a total of $6$. The game stops as soon as either of the players wins. The probability of $A$ winning the game is:
