Question

You roll two dice. Let event A be "The first die shows a 2,a 3, or a 5" and event B be "The second die shows an odd number." What is P(A/B)?

Write fractions using the slash ( / ) key. Reduce fractions to their lowest terms.

( The / is supposed to be the straight line but I didn't know how to put it on here.)

Answer 1

1/2

Answer 2

P(A) = 3/6 (3 out of all possible outcomes) = 1/3
P(B) = 3/6 = 1/3 again since possible odd numbers are 3 (1,3,5)
P(A/B) is basically 1/3 / 1/3
which is (3/3 = ) 1

Haven't worked with possibilities in ages so I'm not sure for the P(A/B) part! Sorry!
