i need help solving my first question

OpenStudy (vickyisthesmartone123):

Sorry, but it's too small. :\

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

You have to make an event table

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

Or just write all the required outcomes

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

Can you do that?

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

123 134 145 156 234 245 255 345 356 456 124 135 146 235 246 346 125 136 236 126

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

Now count the number of events by the probability of one of them(since the probability of each one remains same)

OpenStudy (samigupta8):

Is the ans 0.556??

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

i dont know, im still trying to figure it out myself

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

I am getting 0.0926

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

20(1/6 x 1/6 x 1/6)

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

wellthats not even a choice

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

What are the choices

OpenStudy (samigupta8):

Don't u have an ans key to check the ans ??

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

do you mean 0.596

OpenStudy (samigupta8):

2nd option i meant in the very first question of yours ..

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

the answers are just under the question

OpenStudy (samigupta8):

I know that will u pls tell if the ans i got was right or not from whatever u have (an ans key) so that i may make u understand regarding the same ..

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

Oh wait I listed the wrong events

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

i dont have the answer key, this is my homework and i dont understand it

OpenStudy (samigupta8):

Okk !! Then shall i tell you how i got this??

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

of course, lets hear it

OpenStudy (samigupta8):

Okay i begin then! First of all we want that no similar number should cum on the die so we can say that like first case is 1,2,3 Now if i keep 1 to be fix on one die then you want that 1 should not repeat on the remaining die so u don't want that number so choice is 5 out of 6 nos. on second dice and 4 out of 6 for third dice..

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

Hmm yeah its correct

OpenStudy (samigupta8):

Total cases are 5*4=20 for the case that 1 is on first dice.. Now do it for assuming the case that 2 is on dice 1 and u again get 20 cases.. So this process is repeated till 6 no. on dice 1 so u get total cases to be 120(20*6)
