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 greater than 3?Write your answer as a percentage._____%
Die Probability Calculation: The possible outcomes of rolling a die are {1,2,3,4,5,6}. The probability of rolling a number greater than 3 is P(\text{Rolling a number} > 3) = \frac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}} = \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2}
Independent Events Probability: Since the two rolls are independent events, the probability of rolling a number greater than 3 on the first roll and then again on the second roll is the product of the two individual probabilities.P(\text{Rolling a number} > 3 \text{ and then} > 3) = P(\text{Rolling a number} > 3) \times P(\text{Rolling a number} > 3)=21×21=41
Percentage Conversion: The probability is 1/4. To write the probability as a percentage, multiply the probability by 100. (1/4×100)%=25%
