Question

Probability help please?

What is the probability that Annie rolls a sum of 6 and Jose rolls doubles?

Answer 1

3/12 * 1/2 = 3/24, i believe.

Answer 2

That's only if order of which number comes first doesn't matter though.. :/

Answer 3

when you roll dice isn't there 36 possibilities though?

Answer 4

there is, if the order matters.

Answer 5

so for instance, if the first number has to be 1, and then so on, then yes, 36 possibilities. if it doesn't matter, you can only have 12 different sums.

Answer 6

yea i think its all 36, so then would it be 1/36* 1/6

Answer 7

if it's all 35, then it'd be 1/6*1/6 = 1/36

Answer 8

if it's all 36*
