The faces of a fair cube are numbered 1 through 6; the probability of rolling any number from 1 through 6 is equally likely. If the cube is rolled twice, what is the probability that an even number will appear on the top face in the first roll or that the number 1 will appear on the top face in the second roll?

Respuesta :

The probability that an even number in the first roll or that the number 1 will be in the second roll will be 1/12.

What is probability?

Its basic premise is that something will almost certainly happen. The percentage of favorable events to the total number of occurrences.

The faces of a fair cube are numbered 1 through 6; the probability of rolling any number from 1 through 6 is equally likely.

If the cube is rolled twice.

Then the probability that an even number will appear on the top face in the first roll or that the number 1 will appear on the top face in the second roll will be

Total event = 6 × 6 = 36

Favorable event = 3 {(2, 1), (4, 1), (6, 1)}

Then we have

P = 3/36

P = 1/12
