Two dice are rolled. what is the probability of having both faces the same (doubles) or a total of 4? round to the nearest hundredth.
Question
Answer:
The probability is 0.25.There are a total of 36 outcomes in the sample space for rolling 2 dice.
Out of these, there are 6 ways to get doubles (1 and 1, 2 and 2, 3 and 3, 4 and 4, 5 and 5, 6 and 6).
There are also 3 ways to get a total of 4: 1 and 3, 2 and 2, 3 and 1.
Together this gives us 9/36 = 0.25.
