Only 6 is greater than 5 on a standard cubic die. The chance of rolling a 6 is one in six.
Well, honey, unless that die is rigged or magical, the probability of getting a number greater than 0 when rolling it once is 100%. I mean, unless you manage to roll a negative number or a zero, but then we'd have bigger problems to deal with than just probabilities.
1/6,3/6 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The probability of rolling a 2 is: P(2) = 1/6 The probability of rolling an even number is: P(even) = 1/2 The result on the second roll is independent of the result in the first roll. The probability of rolling a 2 and then rolling an even number is: P(2,even no.) = (1/6) ∙ (1/2) = 1/12 = 0.08333... ≈ 8.33%
The theoretical probability of rolling a 5 on a standard six sided die is one in six. It does not matter how many times you roll it, however, if you roll it 300 times, the theoretical probability is that you would roll a 5 fifty times.
Gary's chances of rolling either a 4 or a 6 are the same for any of the other numbers on the cube. The probability is 1 out of 3.
Assuming that a dice roll is purely random, there is a 1 in 6 probability of landing on any number. Since the second roll depends on the probability of the first, they factor together: First Roll: 1/6 Second Roll: (1/6)(1/6) = 1/36 If you were rolling both dice at once, however, the math would be completely different.
It is 0.5
It is 0.5
One out of two
4 over/out of 6
fifty percent
The probability is zero. No number can be less than 3 and greater than 4.
The probability of rolling a seven with one roll of a standard number cube is zero.
Sample space, roll of 1 die, is: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. The numbers greater than 3 are: 4, 5, 6; which is 1/2 of the sample space. So, probability of rolling a number greater than 3 on one roll of a die is 1/2 or 0.5.
To find the probability of something happening orsomething else happening, you add together the probability of each happening, and then subtract the probability of both happening.For instance, the probability of rolling greater than 4 on a dice is 1/3. You could roll 5 or 6. The probability of rolling an even number is 1/2. You could roll 2, 4 or 6. The probability of rolling greater than 4 or an even number is 1/3 + 1/2 - 1/6 which = 2/3
The probability of rolling a total of 3 or less on two dice is 3 in 36 or 1 in 12.
Sample space, roll of 1 die, is: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. The numbers greater than 3 are: 4, 5, 6; which is 1/2 of the sample space. So, probability of rolling a number greater than 3 on one roll of a die is 1/2 or 0.5.
Sample space, roll of 1 die, is: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. The numbers greater than 3 are: 4, 5, 6; which is 1/2 of the sample space. So, probability of rolling a number greater than 3 on one roll of a die is 1/2 or 0.5.
