Find the probablity that you get a total of more than 3 in a throw of 2 dice.
\(\large \color{black}{\begin{align} & \normalsize \text{ Find the probablity that you get a total of more than }\hspace{.33em}\\~\\ & \normalsize \text{ 3 in a throw of 2 dice .}\hspace{.33em}\\~\\ \end{align}}\)
more than 3 -> 6x4 (1,2,3,4,5,6) and (3,4,5,6) all the possibilites -> 6x6 (1,2,3,4,5,6) and (1,2,3,4,5,6)
is it 24/36=2/3
you could just do \[\Pr(T>3)=1-\Pr(T \le3)\]
would be less ways that way
and you know there are 36 combinations in total for rolling any number.
yes chris is correct.. btw i forgot about (3,1), (4,1),... (3,2), (4,2),... combinations I think its better to follow chris 's way
1,1 2,1 2,1 are the only combinations less than or equal to 3
is it 11/12
\[\Pr(X \le3)=\frac{ 1 }{ 36 }+\frac{ 2 }{ 36 }\]
ye
looks good
11/12 is correct
awesome
