The volume of one die is the edge to the power of 3:
The total volume is five times the above volume:
Answer:
To solve this problem, let us recall that the formula for
probability is:
Probability = total number of successful events / total
events
Where in this case, an event is considered to be successful
if the sum is 3 on the pair of six sided dice.
First, let us calculate for the total number of events. There
are 6 numbers per dice, therefore the total number of combinations is:
total events = 6 * 6 = 36
Next, we calculate for the total number of combinations
that result in a sum of 3. We can identify that there are only two cases that
result in sum of 3. That is:
1st case: first dice rolls 1, second dice
rolls 2
2nd case: first dice rolls 2, second dice
rolls 1
Hence, total number of successful events = 2. Therefore the
probability is:
Probability = 2 / 36 = 1 / 18 = 0.0556 = 5.56%
82. Dora bought one package of each 1-pound pork, 2-pound pork and 4-pound pork.
Thus, she got a total of:
=> 1 pound + 2 pounds + 4 pounds = 7 pounds of pork.
Question: How many ¼ pound of hamburger she can make then with this given number of pork in pounds.
=> ¼ = 1 / 4 = .25
Now, let’s divide 7 pounds by .25 pounds
=> 7 / .25 = 28
Thus, She can make 28 hamburgers in all.
