Given two dice are thrown
Possible outcomes =$6\times 6=36$
$\therefore$ The sample space
$S=\left\{\begin{array}{1 1}(1,1)(1,2)(1,3)(1,4)(1,5)(1,6)\\(2,1)(2,2)(2,3)(2,4)(2,5)(2,6)\\(3,1)(3,2)(3,3)(3,4)(3,5)(3,6)\\(4,1)(4,2)(4,3)(4,4)(4,5)(4,6)\\(5,1)(5,2)(5,3)(5,4)(5,5)(5,6)\\(6,1)(6,2)(6,3)(6,4)(6,5)(6,6)\end{array}\right\}$
B=$\left\{\begin{array}{1 1}(1,1),(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(1,5),(1,6),\\(3,1),(3,2),(3,3),(3,4),(3,5),(3,6),\\(5,1),(5,2),(5,3),(5,4),(5,5),(5,6)\end{array}\right\}$
$C=\left\{\begin{array}{1 1}(1,1),(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(1,5),(2,1),\\(2,2),(2,3),(3,1),(3,2),(4,1)\end{array}\right\}$
B and C=$B \cap C$
$\therefore$ Elements which are common in B & C
$\Rightarrow \{(1,1),(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(3,1),(3,2)\}$
