Let A be the event that the first die is 1 and B be the event that the dice sum to 3. We can find P(B | A) by finding all of the outcomes where the sum of the dice is 3, given that the first die is 1. There is only 1 outcome that meets these conditions, and there are 6 total outcomes where the first die is 1,
