(N/A) When two dice are thrown,the sample space $S$ contains $36$ outcomes:
$S = \{(x, y) : x, y \in \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6\} \}$.
Event $B$ is getting an odd number on the first die:
$B = \{(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (1, 6), (3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3), (3, 4), (3, 5), (3, 6), (5, 1), (5, 2), (5, 3), (5, 4), (5, 5), (5, 6)\}$.
Event $C$ is getting the sum of the numbers on the dice $\leq 5$:
$C = \{(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3), (3, 1), (3, 2), (4, 1)\}$.
