Answer:
1/13 ≈ 7.69%
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 4 sixes in a standard deck. So the probability is 4/52 = 1/13, or about 7.69%.
Let's pose this question a different way: what are the chances that one out of all possible events is going to happen? What are the chances that, if I roll a die, I will roll a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or a 6? What is the probability, if I flip a coin, that the outcome will either be heads or tails? When we take every possible outcome and add their probabilities together, the sum of the probabilities will be 100%, or 1.
Example:
Coin Toss:
Prob of Heads (.5) plus Prob of Tails (.5) = 1
Dice roll:
1/6 (odds of rolling any given number) times 6 (number of possibilities) = 1
Answer:
6.8
Step-by-step explanation:
8 * 6 = 48 (to reverse dividing by 6 to basically un-average the 6 numbers).
5 * 4 = 20 (to un-average these numbers as well).
48 + 20 = 68
68 / 10 = 6.8
Basically by doing this you are still adding all the numbers together & then dividing by 10 as if you added them all up at once & not in a group of 6 & a group of 4.
Hope this helped. :)
Sometimes when you’re doing math, it’s easier to line your numbers up when you have your ratio as a decimal! Hope it helped
