You are playing a game with your friends, Alex and Jeff. The first player who rolls a total of seven using two number cubes gets to start the game. Explain how to find the probability that you will roll a total of seven on your first try.

Respuesta :

A table can show all the possible sums for two number cubes. Using the table, there are 6 ways to get 7, and 36 possible sums, so the probability is 6/36 = 1/6.

The Probability that you will roll a total of seven on your first try is 1/6.

What is Probability?

Probability is "Possibility that deals occurrence of random event. The value is expressed from 0 to 1".

According to the question,

The first player who rolls a total of seven using two number cubes gets to start the game.

(1,1)(1,2)(1,3)(1,4)(1,5)(1,6)

(2,1)(2,2)(2,3)(2,4)(2,5)(2,6)

(3,1)(3,2)(3,3)(3,4)(3,5)(3,6)

(4,1)(4,2)(4,3)(4,4)(4,5)(4,6)

(5,1)(5,2)(5,3)(5,4)(5,5)(5,6)

(6,1)(6,2)(6,3)(6,4)(6,5)(6,6)

From the table, we have 6 ways to get 7 and total number outcomes is 36.

The 6 ways are (1,6)(2,5)(3,4)(4,3)(5,2)(6,1).

The Probability that you will roll a total of seven on your first try

= [tex]\frac{6}{36}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex].

Hence, The Probability that you will roll a total of seven on your first try is  1/6.
