Do u know how to calculate basic probability?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

add up all the outcomes the probability of getting a 1 is 7 divided by this sum ( times 100 for percentage. calculate the probabilty of a 6 in a similar way. now, do you add or multiply these probabilities to get the final answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lets write prob of rolling 1 as P(1) and prob of rolling 6 as p(6) then P(1) = 7/30 [ as there 30 outcomes on total and 7 are favourable] and P(6) = 4/30 now P(1) or P(6) is adding both probabilities we get 11/30

thx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to get percentage , u have to multiply it with 100

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

what is it you dont know ? why you add them?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i tried to add it up it did not work

OpenStudy (anonymous):
