anyone know how to do theses please
Rolling a 1 and then another 1 when a 6-sided die is rolled twice. To find the probability, you want to find the probability of rolling a one. What is the probability of rolling a one, once?
1?
Well. To find the probability. You want to find the possible outcomes. What is the possible outcomes in a die?
i have no clue
What do you have in a die?
6
Hmm. Your on a right track. Just be a little bit more specific. You have a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and a 6. So the possible outcomes of a die is 6. Now how many time do you see 1 out of the 6 possible outcome?
1 time
Good. So the probability of rolling a 1, once, is \[\large \large \frac{ 1 }{ 6 }\] Now you want to find the probability of rolling a one, once. Now obviously it is the same probaiblity of rolling a 1, once. (1/6) Now to answer that problem, you want to multiply the 2 fraction. \[\large \large \frac{ 1 }{ 6 } \times \frac{ 1 }{ 6 }=?\]
What does that give you?
1/36
Good job! I hope this help. :)
thank you!
