Question

Vincent rolls two dice. What is the probability his results are a multiple of four or the

sum greater than 6?

Answer 1

Sample space: 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 6.5, 6.6.

So the mutiples are 1.3, 2.2, 2.6, 3.1, 3.5, 4.4, 5.3, 6.2, and 6.6

Greather than 6 is 1.6, 2.5, 3.4, 3.6, 4.3, 4.5 4.6, 5.2, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 6.1, 6.3, 6.4, and 6.5.

So the prop is 24/36 or 2/3=66%
