Question

Dice A has the sides 2, 2, 4, 4, 6, 6 and Dice B has 1, 3, 1, 3, 1, 3. What is the probability that when you roll the dice Dice A - Dice B is equal to 1?

Answer 1

i remember doing a question just like this. Im pretty sure the answer is 1/4

Explanation:

Answer 2

• 1/3 or 33.33%

Explanation:

Dice A - Dice B = 1 is likely if:

• 1. Dice A = 2 and Dice B = 1

or

• 2. Dice A = 4 and Dice B = 3

Probability of the first scenario is:

• 2/6*3/6 = 1/6

Probability of the second scenario is:

• 2/6*3/6 = 1/6

Total is:

• 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6 = 1/3 or 33.33%
