What is the probability of rolling either a 5 or 6 or 8 or 9 before rolling a 7 with two dice?
Consider the three events:
A = rolling 5, 6, 8 or 9.
B = rolling 7
C = rolling any other number.
Let P be the probability of these events in one roll of a pair of dice.
Then P(A) = P(5) + P(6) + P(8) + P(9) = 18/36 = 1/2
P(B) = P(7) = 6/36 = 1/6
and P(C) = 1 - [P(A) + P(B)] = 1/3
Now P(A before B) = P(A or C followed by A before B)
= P(A) + P(C)*P(A before B)
= 1/2 + 1/3*P(A before B)
That is, P(A before B) = 1/2 + 1/3*P(A before B)
or 2/3*P(A before B) = 1/2
so that P(A before B) = 1/2*3/2 = 3/4
