Is rolling doubles a simple event or compound event? explain.

You have to consider the sample space. In this example the sample space 
is {1,2,3,4,5,6}
A simple event can be defined as a SINGLE outcome : Example getting a 3 OR 5 OR any other number from the sample space.
Now if you roll 1 dice & you want to get an even number (2,4,6) then you have chosen from the sample space 3 outcome & this is a compound event
Equally if you roll 2 dice and want to get "one" and/or "three" this is a compound event since you have chosen 2 outcome from the sample space.
Mind you, if you want 5 And 5 when rolling two dice it's a simple event because you have chosen ONE outcome from the sample space.
Hope this will help you to understand this kind of problem

He is right i did this thing before
