John and Jackie roll a die. John wins if he rolls a number higher than 4. Jackie wins if she rolls a number lower than 4

my bets are on Jackie

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i forgot to add is the bet fair

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or the game is the game fair

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lets think about it for a sec, who would you place you money on if you had to?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

john wins if the dice rolls 5 or 6 jackie wins if the dice rolls 1,2 or 3 so the odds in favor of jackie are more

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i put my money on jackie, and thats because of what dhatraditya posted. So the game isnt fair at all. If it were fair, both people would have an equal chance of winning.
