1/3s = 1/5
Multiply by the reciprocal.
1/3 * 3/1 = 1/5*3/1
1/5 * 3/1 = 3/5
s = 3/5
Answer: s = 3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us intepret this condition in our context:
"...that the minimum value is not less than 2 and the maximum value is not greater than 5"
This means that when we roll the dice, we do not want 1 or 6 to appear. Instead we wish for 2/3/4/5 to appear.
The probability of getting these four sides out of six in a roll is 4/6, or 2/3.
We have to roll this dice 4 times. Hence we raise the probability to a power of 4:
Total probability = (2/3)⁴
= (2)⁴ / (3)⁴
= 16/81. (C)
