Question

Simone and Leah are playing a game with dice. What is the probability Simone rolls a 6 and then Leah rolls an odd number?

Answer 1

1. 1/6

2. 1/2

Explanation:

A dice has 6 sides. So the sample space for this question =

[1,2,3,4,5,6]

1. From the sample space we can see that 6 occurs only once in a dice

So probability of a 6

= 1/6

2. Number of odds = 3 (1,3,5)

Probability Leah rolls an odd number

= Odd/total

= 3/6

= 1/2
