You are throwing darts at a dart board. You have a chance of striking the bull's-eye each time you throw. If you throw 3 times, what is the probability that you will strike the bull's-eye all 3 times?

Answer:

Correct answers is


(1)/(216)

Explanation:

Given: The chances of striking the bull's-eye each time of throw =\frac{1}{6}

Since, if we throe dart on dart board , each event will be independent of the other.

Then, If we throw 3 times, what is the probability that we will strike the bull's-eye all 3 times is given by :-


p(strike \: bulls \: eye \: ) = (1)/(6) x (1)/(6) x (1)/(6) = (1)/(216)

Hence, the probability that we will strike the bull's-eye all 3 times is 1/216
