11/36

Step-by-step explanation:

So here’s the probability of rolling one three or more on one dice:

2,3

1,3. 5 chance of at least one 3 on this dice

4,3

5,3

6,3

On other die:

3,2

3,4

3,1

3,5

3,6. 6 chance of rolling at least one 3 on this dice

3,3

5+6=11

11/36 possible combinations contain at least one three

Hope this helps!

-- Two fair dice can land in 36 possible ways.  (6 ways each).

--  The successful tosses are

              3 (not 3)
       (not 3) 3
and         3 3

Three of the 36 possible outcomes are successful.

-- The probability of a successful toss is
 
                 (3) / (36)  =  1/12  =  (8 and 1/3) % .

P(3) = 1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

12 is the denominator because you have two die with six sides.

We define the probability of a particular event occurring as:
\frac{number\ of \ desired\ outcomes}{number\ of\ possible\ outcomes}

What are the total number of possible outcomes for the rolling of two dice? The rolls - though performed at the same time - are independent, which means one roll has no effect on the other. There are six possible outcomes for the first die, and for each of those, there are six possible outcomes for the second, for a total of 6 x 6 = 36 possible rolls.

Now that we've found the number of possible outcomes, we need to find the number of desired outcomes. What are our desired outcomes in this problem? They are asking for all outcomes where there is at least one 5 rolled. It turns out, there are only 3:

(1) D1 - 5, D2 - Anything else, (2), D1 - Anything else, D2 - 5, and (3) D1 - 5, D2 - 5

So, we have \frac{3}{36} = \frac{1}{12} probability of rolling at least one 5.

The probability that there is at least one pair but not a three of a kind is 0.6944.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the case when we have five dices and we roll them and we need  that there is at least one pair but not a three of a king which is Two dice showing the same value, but no three dice showing the value.

Total no of outcomes = 6^5 = 7776

We will consider the other cases and then subtract them from the total outcomes.

No of outcomes of 5 of a kind = 6

No of outcomes 4 of a kind and 1 different = (6*5)*5 = 150

No of outcomes with 3 of a kind and 1 different pairs = (6*1*1*5*1)*5C2= 300

No of outcomes with 3 of a kind and two different = 6*5*4*10= 120*10=1200

No of outcomes when all are different = 6! = 720

These all the cases when subtracted from the total will represent the total cases in which there are two dice showing the same value.

Total cases = 6+150+300+1200+720

                   = 2376

Required no of outcomes = 7776-2376 = 5400

Probability = \frac{5400}{7776} = 0.6944

Therefore the probability for the case of at least one pair but not a three of a kind is 0.6944.
