The probability of rolling a number that is divisible by 3 on a number cube is 1/3 . The probability of rolling a 5 on the number cube is 1/6 . What is the probability of rolling a number that is divisible by 3 or a 5?

Thank you :) give me a second

OpenStudy (haleyelizabeth2017):

Is 1/18 an option?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (perl):

you can use the general addition rule

OpenStudy (perl):

please guide the student, don't give the answer directly

OpenStudy (haleyelizabeth2017):

I'm sorry!

What is the probability of rolling a number that is divisible by 3 or a 5? General addition Rule: P( A or B ) = P( A ) + P(B) - P( A & B ) P( divisible by 3 or roll 5 ) = P( divisible by 3 ) + P ( roll a 5) - P ( divisible by 3 & roll a 5)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its 1/2

OpenStudy (perl):

since P( divisible by 3 & roll a 5 ) = 0

OpenStudy (perl):

if you roll a 5 it isn't divisible by 3

OpenStudy (perl):

smh
