Question

If you rolled two dice what is the probability that you would roll a 4 or a 5

Answer 1

Hello there! Given that normal dice are numbered 1-6, individually rolling a 4 or a 5 would give a 1/6 probability. That converts to about 17% as a percentage because we can multiply 1 by 100 to get 100/6, then divide 100 by 6 to get 16.6666. When rounding, that gives approximately 17%. However, if we combined probabilities, we would find that rolling a 4 or a 5 collectively gives a 2/6 probability, which is approximately 33% as a decimal.

In terms of individual probabilities, you would be 17% likely to roll one of them. In terms of collectiveness, the likelihood of rolling a 4 or 5 would render 33% on each die. If you need additional help, let me know and I will gladly assist you.
