1 Answer

Answer :

(c) 0.42P(Particular number comes on the dice) = \(rac{1}{6}\)(∵ there are in all 6 numbers)P(particular number does not come on the dice) = 1 - \(rac{1}{6}\) = \(rac{5}{6}\)As there are 3 dices, so,P(Picked number does not come in any of dice) = \(\big(rac{5}{6}\big)^3\)P(You lose money) = \(\big(rac{5}{6}\big)^3\) = \(rac{125}{216}\) ≈ 0.58∴ P(Winning) = 1 - 0.58 = 0.42
