Answer:
the probability of getting exactly 2 fours is 0.16
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of obtaining a number that is four = ¹/₆
The probability of obtaining a non 4 number = 1 - ¹/₆ = ⁵/₆
The number of ways 2 fours can be arrange in five numbers = ⁵C₂ = 10 ways
If the die is tossed five times, the probability of the events is calculated as;
P = 10 x (¹/₆)² x (⁵/₆)³
P = 10 x (¹/₃₆) x (¹²⁵/₂₁₆)
P = 10 x 0.02778 x 0.5787
P = 0.16
Therefore, the probability of getting exactly 2 fours is 0.16
