What is the probability of rolling 2 dice and getting a total of 3?
1/18
To find the probability that the sum of the two dice is three, we can divide the event frequency (2) by the size of the sample space (36), resulting in a probability of 1/18.
What is the probability of rolling a sum of 8?
There are 36 outcomes in total. Five of them (2,6), (3,5), (4,4), (5,3) and (6,2) result in sum 8. So, assuming all outcomes are equiprobable, the answer is 5/36.
How many outcomes are possible with 3 dice?
216 possible outcomes
We can list all possible outcomes for the three dice and add a fourth column that contains a 0 if the event is not in A and contains a 1 if the event is in A. By simple counting, we find that there are 15 outcomes in event A, out of the total of 216 possible outcomes.
What is the probability that if we roll 2 dice the sum is 7?
For each of the possible outcomes add the numbers on the two dice and count how many times this sum is 7. If you do so you will find that the sum is 7 for 6 of the possible outcomes. Thus the sum is a 7 in 6 of the 36 outcomes and hence the probability of rolling a 7 is 6/36 = 1/6.
What is the probability of rolling a dice twice and having a sum of 3 or sum of 4?
1/12
The number of favorable outcomes = 3. Total number of possibilities = 36. Probability = The number of favorable outcomes / Total number of possibilities = 3 / 36 = 1/12.
What is the probability of rolling a sum of 3 on a standard pair of six sided dice?
There are no other combinations that sum to 3, so we have 2 out of a total of 36 combinations that sum to 3. Therefore, the answer is 2/36 = 1/18.
When two dice are rolled find the probability of getting a sum of 6?
5/36
Answer: The probability of rolling a sum of 6 with two dice is 5/36.
