Question

What is the P(1,6,4) on 3 rolls of a dice? show how you got the answer!

Answer 1

1/9

Explanation:

Given the sample space of a die S=(1,2,3,4,5,6)

and the sample size=6

the probability of obtaining the number 1 Pr(1)= 1/6= 1/6

the probability of obtaining the number 6 Pr(1)= 6/6= 1

the probability of obtaining the number 4 Pr(1)= 4/6= 2/3

Hence the probability of P(1,6,4) =
`(1)/(6) *1 *(2)/(3) =(2)/(18) = (1)/(9) \\`
