If you roll two die at the same time what is the probability that the total of the two faces will be greater than 6 but less than 10?

Qualifying throws: 1/6, 2/5, 2/6, 3/4, 3/5, 3/6, 4/3, 4/4, 4/5, 5/2, 5/3, 5/4, 6/1, 6/2 and 6/3
These represent 15 of the 36 possible throws so probability is 0.417 or 41.7%

What is the probability that you will roll no number greater that 3 with two dices?
The probability of rolling a total of 3 or less on two dice is 3 in 36 or 1 in 12.
What are Synonyms of probability from likely to least likely?
certainty (no doubt), probability or likelihood (greater than 50% chance), possibility (greater than 0% but less than 50% chance)
What is an event with a probability greater then 0 but less than half?
There are many such events. The probability of throwing a 1 or 2 on one roll of a die, for example.
What is the probability of rolling a number less than 9 on a 20 sided die?
Assuming that the faces of the 20 sided die are numbered 1 to 20, then the probability of rolling a number less than 9 is 8 in 20, or 0.4.
How would you find the probablility of a number less than three or a number greater than five on a spinner that is numbered from one to eight?
There are 2 numbers less than 3, so the probability in this case is 2 in 8, or 1 in 4. There are 3 numbers greater than 5, so the probability in this case is 3 in 8. There are 5 numbers less than 3 or greater than 5, so the probability in this case is 5 in 8.
What is the probability that you will roll no number greater that 3 with two dices?
The probability of rolling a total of 3 or less on two dice is 3 in 36 or 1 in 12.
What is the probability of rolling a number less than 3 and greater than 4 with one roll of a number cube?
The probability is zero. No number can be less than 3 and greater than 4.
When probability is less then 0 what happen?
Probability can not be less than 0 or greater than 1. A probability of 0 means there is no possibility whatsoever of an event occurring. A probability of 1 means that the event is guaranteed to occur no matter what.
How often is the probability of the complement of an event less than the probability of the event itself?
It depends on the events. The answer is 0.5*(Total number of events - number of events with probability = 0.5) That is, discount all events such that their probability (and that of their complement) is exactly a half. Then half the remaining events will have probabilities that are greater than their complement's.
Can a probability be more than 1 or less than 0?
No. A probability of 1 means something will definitely happen. There cannot be a greater certainty than that, so probability cannot be greater than 1. 0 means there is no chance of something happening. You cannot have less than no chance of something happening. So a probability cannot be less than 0.
What are Synonyms of probability from likely to least likely?
certainty (no doubt), probability or likelihood (greater than 50% chance), possibility (greater than 0% but less than 50% chance)
Are the probability values always greater than or equal to 0 or less than or equal to 1 or all positive numbers?
Probability values are never negative and are always between 0-1 according to the definition Probability of A= Number of outcomes classified as A/Total number of possible outcomes
Can a joint probability have a value greater than 1?
A joint probability can have a value greater than one. It can only have a value larger than 1 over a region that measures less than 1.
What is an event with a probability greater then 0 but less than half?
There are many such events. The probability of throwing a 1 or 2 on one roll of a die, for example.
What is the probability of rolling a number less than 9 on a 20 sided die?
Assuming that the faces of the 20 sided die are numbered 1 to 20, then the probability of rolling a number less than 9 is 8 in 20, or 0.4.
How would you find the probablility of a number less than three or a number greater than five on a spinner that is numbered from one to eight?
There are 2 numbers less than 3, so the probability in this case is 2 in 8, or 1 in 4. There are 3 numbers greater than 5, so the probability in this case is 3 in 8. There are 5 numbers less than 3 or greater than 5, so the probability in this case is 5 in 8.
When three dice are thrown what is the probability that the sum on three faces is less than 16?
There are 216 permutations of three dice. Of these, 206 have a sum that is less than 16, specifically, the permutations 466, 556, 565, 566, 646, 655, 656, 664, 665, and 666 have sums that are 16 or greater - all other permutations have sums that are less than 16. The probability, then, of rolling a sum less than 16 on three dice is 206 in 216, or about 0.9537.
