Question

A red number cube and a white number cube are rolled. The faces of both cubes are numbered from 1 to 6. What is the probability of NOT rolling a 3 on the red number cube and rolling a number 3 OR LESS on the white number cube? Please select one answer.

Answer 1

The answer is 5/12 or 42%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To get this, you have to see what the odds are for this to happen. What's the probability that it will not be a 3? 5/6. What about the probability of rolling 3 or less?. 1/2. Multiply the probabilities 5/6*1/2 and you get 5/12 or a 42% chance. Hope it helps!
