Question

If I were to roll a one 6 sided die and one 4 sided die, what would be the probability that I roll doubles?

Thanks in advance :D

Answer 1

what do you mean by doubles?

you mean same outcome?

Answer 2

Yes, by doubles I mean same outcome.

Answer 3

Assumption: the die with six faces is the standard number cube and that the tetrahedral die has faces numbered 1, 2, 3, 4.
There are 6 outcomes for tossing the cube and 4 for the tetrahedron. That gives 6*4 = 24 possible outcomes for tossing the pair.
Of those, doubles are (1,1); (2,2); (3,3),and (4,4).
P(doubles) = 4/24 or 1/6.

Answer 4

Thanks!
