Two dice are thrown. What is the probability of getting the same number?
The first dice can show any number. However the second dice has a 1 in 6 chance of being the same as the first. Hence the probability of getting two numbers the same is 1/6.
Bill will toss a coin and roll a number cube once. What is the probability that the coin will show tails and the number cube will show a multiple of three?
(1/2)*(2/6) = 1/6
Is the food thrown out after a cooking show?
Unfortunately, in many cases food is thrown out after a cooking show. Unless there is a large audience to eat the leftovers, or if the filming crew takes the food home, the food gets thrown in the trash.
When tossing 5 coins simultaneously find the probability that at least 1 head is showing.?
This is easiest to solve by working out the probability that no heads show and subtracting this from 1 to give the probability that at least one head shows: Assuming unbiased coins which won't land and stay on their edge, the probability of head = probability of tail = ½ → probability no heads = probability 5 tails = ½^5 = 1/32 → probability of at least one head = 1 - 1/32 = 31/32 = 0.96875 = 96.875 % = 96 7/8 %
The probability that a given student will show up for the test is 0.9 if there are 27 students in the class what is the probability that everyone will show up?
.9^27, or approximately .058 = 5.8%
What is the probability that the sum of the dice is odd and both dice show the number 3?
The probability is 0. If both dice show the number 3 then the sum is 6 which is not odd.
How many times would a coin have to show heads in 50 tosses to show an experimental probability of 20 percent more than the theoretical probability of getting heads?
Theoretical probability = 0.5 Experimental probability = 20% more = 0.6 In 50 tosses, that would imply 30 heads.
Suppose you roll a die 3 times What is the probability that the face 6 will never show up?
The probability that a six will never show up in three rolls of a die is 125 in 216. The probability that a six will not show up in one roll is 5 in 6. Raise that to the third power to get 125 in 216.
What is the probability of flipping 2 coins and having both show heads?
If both tosses are fair, the probability of that outcome is one in four.
