Question

You roll a dice three times what is the probability that you roll an even number on the first roll, and odd on the second roll and 5 on the third roll?
A. 1/12
B. 1/4
C. 7/6
B. 1/24

Answer 1

Answer:

D. 1/24

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the die is fair and the events are independent, the probability of the series of events is the product of the probabilities of the individual events.

p(even) = 3/6 = 1/2

p(odd) = 3/6 = 1/2

p(5) = 1/6

Then the joint probability is ...

.. (1/2)·(1/2)·(1/6) = 1/24
