How many ways can a sum of 15 be obtained from 3 dice?
There are three ways to roll 15 with three dice: 663, 654 and 555. I’ll call this the greatest-sum-set (GSS); these have to be the greatest within the roll.
When 3 dice are rolled what is the probability of getting a sum of 15?
4.6\%
Probability of a sum of 15: 10/216 = 4.6\%
How many ways are there to get a sum of 15 if 7 distinct dice are rolled?
There are 36 different possible rolls (although several are inverses).
How many possible outcomes are there if 3 indistinguishable dice are thrown?
There are 36 possible outcomes, each with probability 1/36 = 36/1296.
What is the probability of getting sum 15?
5/108
If three dice are thrown simultaneously then probability of getting a sum of 15 is 5/108 .
How many ways can you roll a sum of 8?
So, in 5 ways we can roll a 8 with two dice.
How many possible outcomes are there in throwing 2 coins and 2 dice?
Rolling two six-sided dice: Each die has 6 equally likely outcomes, so the sample space is 6 • 6 or 36 equally likely outcomes. Flipping three coins: Each coin has 2 equally likely outcomes, so the sample space is 2 • 2 • 2 or 8 equally likely outcomes….
First coin | Second coin | outcome |
---|---|---|
H | H | HH |
H | T | HT |
T | H | TH |
T | T | TT |
How many possibilities are there when rolling 4 dice?
My initial reaction is to say that the answer is 64, since 4 dice can have 6 outcomes. In my train of thought, the first dice can have 6 outcomes, same as the second, third and fourth, thus 6∗6∗6∗6 would seem fitting.
What is the probability of getting a sum as 3 If a dice is thrown twice?
This means that 3 can come upon one of the two thrown die or on both. Therefore, its Probability (P) is: P=Fav. OutcomesTotalOutcomes⇒P=336=112 As the total number of outcomes is 36 and the favorable outcome is only 3.
