Question

You roll two fair dice, one green and one red.

(b) Find P(5 on green die and 3 on red die).
(c) Find P(3 on green die and 5 on red die).
(d) Find P((5 on green die and 3 on red die) or (3 on green die and 5 on red die)).

please help and explain with this... I'm stuck..

Answer 1

i'm not good at probability question but ehhh let me try it
one dice = 6 sides
you can get 5 only one time right
and same with 3 = there is only possibility to get 3 on each dice

Answer 2

i appreciate that you're still trying to help (:

Answer 3

P(5G and 3R)
\[\rm \color{green}{\frac{ 1 }{ 6}}\] possibility to get 5
\[\rm \color{red}{\frac{ 1 }{ 6 }}\] possibility to get 3 on one die

Answer 4

yea.. so 2/24 ?

Answer 5

and since both dice are independent so multiply both fraction

Answer 6

now we should multiply them not add.

Answer 7

oh so... 2/36?

Answer 8

\[\rm (\color{green}{\frac{ 1 }{ 6}})*(\color{red}{\frac{1}{6}})\]
multiply numerator *numerator
and denominator * denominator

Answer 9

1/36..?

Answer 10

looks good

Answer 11

think i got it.. thanks !

Answer 12

mmmm what about the last one..?

Answer 13

for last one would do same thing
first set up the fraction for `P((5 on green die and 3 on red die)` and for
`(3 on green die and 5 on red die))`.
and then add both result

Answer 14

the*

Answer 15

so its 1/36 +1/36 ?

Answer 16

right

Answer 17

thin i got it ... thank so much !

Answer 18

np :=))
