Answer:

11/36

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the probability that neither dice shows a 5 (also means the dice can show any number except 5- where there are 5 possible choices out of 6):

= 5/6 x 5/6

=25/36

If we subtract the probability that neither dice shows a 5, we can obtain the probability that at least 1 dice shows a 5- (either one of them is 5, or both of them is 5)

1- 25/36

=11/36

What is (99/100)^101 times (100/99)^100?

sineoko [7]

Answer:

99/100

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all recall that

$a^n\cdot b^n =(ab)^n$

Now we we will try to apply that formula for $a=99/100$ and $b=100/99$ .

First rewrite $(99/100)^{101}=(99/100)\times (99/100)^{100}$

Now

$(99/100)\times (99/100)^{100}\times (100/99)^{100}\\=(99/100)\times ((99/100)\times (100/99))^{100}\\=(99/100)\times 1^{100}\\=(99/100)\times 1\\=99/100$
