Q. You roll a 6-sided die two times. What is the probability of rolling a number greater than \(3\) and then rolling a number less than \(4\)? Write your answer as a percentage. ____ `%`
Find Probability of >3: First, let's find the probability of rolling a number greater than 3. That's rolling a 4, 5, or 6. So, 3 out of 6 numbers work.P(>3) = \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2}.
Find Probability of <4: Next, we need the probability of rolling a number less than 4, which is rolling a 1, 2, or 3. Again, 3 out of 6 numbers work.P(<4) = \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2}.
Multiply Probabilities: Now, we multiply the two probabilities together to get the combined probability. So, it's 21 times 21. P(>3 \text{ and then } <4) = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{4}.
Convert to Percentage: Finally, we convert the fraction to a percentage. Multiply 41 by 100 to get the percentage.(41)×100%=25%.
