How many possible outcomes are there when rolling 1 six sided die?
Six.
Two coins are flipped and a die is rolled how many possible outcomes are there?
Each coin can land in two ways.The die has 6 possible outcomes.So there are 2 x 2 x 6 = 24 possible outcomes for the whole experiment.Note that I am assuming the coins can be told apart - say the first coin and 2nd coin and that H and then T is different that T and then H. If not, then there are only be three outcomes for the coins-- 2 heads, 1 head or no heads and the total number of outcomes would be 3 X 6 = 18.
What are the odds of a number greater than 5 when a die is rolled?
1 out of 6
What is a probability of an event?
Lets first start by defining some terms:Probability (P) in statistics is defined as the chance of an event occurring.Probability experiment is a chance process that leads to results called outcomes.An outcome is the result of a single trial of a probability experiment.A sample set is the set of all possible outcomes of a probability experiment.An event consists of a set of outcomes of a probability experiment. An event can be one outcome or more than one outcome. The event can be anything from flipping a coin, to rolling a die, to picking a card.The probability of any event (E) is:(# of outcomes in E) / (total # of outcomes in sample space)For example: Find the probability a die is rolled and you get a 4?We know that there are 6 possibilities when rolling a die. We can either rolled a 1, or a 2, or a 3, or a 4, or a 5, or a 6.Using the equation above:P(rolling a 4)= 1/6The event in this case is rolling a 4.
What is the probability of a composite number if you rolled a six sided dice?
The probability of rolling a composite number on a 6 sided die, numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, is 1 in 3. There are two composite numbers on the die, 4 and 6. The others are prime, 2, 3, and 5, or unity, 1, so there are 2 possible outcomes in an possible result set of 6, hence the probability is 2 in 6, or 1 in 3.
