(i) A one on the first throw OR a two on the second throw ?
(ii) A one on the first toss AND a two on the second toss of the die ?

1) Either-or probabilities are found by adding the individual probabilities.
2) If the events are independent, the probability of both/all events occurring is determined by multiplying the probabilities of the individual events.
