its 6 am so i don't really know how to do the second one but i assume it's (1/6)^4 ?

part c work out the probability that there are no 6s then subtract from 1
deletedover 8 years
i know how to do first one yes also part c i just checked answer it says 671/1296
deletedover 8 years
the answer to c is 1 - 625/1296

third one is (5/6)^4
deletedover 8 years
first one is basically
1/6 x 1/6 x 1/6 x 1/6 x 1/6 x 1/6
deletedover 8 years
got any idea on part c?
deletedover 8 years
1) 1/1296
3) 625/1296
deletedover 8 years
You multiply by 4 because any one of the four dice could show up with a 6, so there are a total of four cases

i got the first bit (125/1296) but why do you have to divide by 4 afterwards
deletedover 8 years
It's actually 125/1296 * 4 which is 125/324
deletedover 8 years
Yeah it isn't216, my bad
deletedover 8 years
i have the answer it's 125/324 i just don't know how to do it
deletedover 8 years
125/216
deletedover 8 years
no i also feel really stupid for asking
