umber of possible outcomes = 6^4 = 1296

Probability of favorable outcomes = 126/1296=7/72

Number of such outcomes, in which each number is no less than the preceding number, will be equal to number of ways of selecting 4 numbers from 6, with replacement; without considering order!


Why?


Lets choose any such set of size 4, say {2, 1, 1, 3}. we can sort it to get a sequence {1,1,2,3} which is one of our desired outcomes. So each such sorted sequence corresponds to one selection of size 4, with replacement and without considering order.


Number of such selections will be equal to number of solutions of following equation:


x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 + x5 + x6 = 4


where:


x1: number of 1 in the selections


x2: number of 2s in the selection


.


.


x6: number of 6s in the selection


Number unique solutions of such equation = 9 choose 5 = 126


(For more details on this see : Unordered sampling with replacement )


Number of possible outcomes = 6^4 = 1296


Probability of favorable outcomes = 126/1296=7/72

What is the probability of flipping two coins at the same time and getting heads on both coins?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
According to me the probability is 1/4, because there are 4 possible outcomes when two coins are flipped - TT, TH, HT, HH. 

<span>Also, would it matter if the coins are flipped one after other rather than together</span>

<h3>What is a transformation?</h3>

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are reflection, translation, rotation and dilation.

Rigid transformation is the transformation that does not change the shape or size of a figure. Examples of rigid transformations are <em>translation, reflection and rotation</em>.
