Hallie is trying to win the grand prize on a game show. Should she try her luck by spinning a wheel with 6 equal sections from 1 to 6 and hope she gets a 5, or should she roll two number cubes and hope she gets the same number on both cubes. Explain?

OpenStudy (welshfella):

the probability she gets a 5 spinning the wheel = 1/6 with cube the first throw will give a number from 1 to 6 . To get the same number on the second throw probability = 1/6

OpenStudy (welshfella):

Whichever method she tries , the chances of success are the same.
