Transcript

let's say we're playing monopoly with two six sided dice and I say what is the probability that I will get a 7? when I add up the two rolls of the dice so I drew this grid here:and this grid esentially represents all the outcomes I can get with the two dice where on the top row that is the outcomeI can get on dice one: I can get a 1, a 2, a 3, a 4,...

Questions & Answers

Q: How can the probability of rolling a 7 in Monopoly be calculated?

The probability can be calculated by finding the number of favorable outcomes (sum of two dice equal to 7) and dividing it by the total number of possible outcomes (6 x 6 = 36).

Q: What are the favorable outcomes of rolling a 7?

The favorable outcomes are (1,6), (2,5), (3,4), (4,3), (5,2), and (6,1) - a total of six outcomes.

Q: What is the probability of rolling a 7 in Monopoly?

The probability is calculated as 6 favorable outcomes divided by 36 total outcomes, which equals 1/6 or approximately 0.167.

Q: Can the grid be used to calculate probabilities of other outcomes?

Yes, the grid can be used to calculate the probabilities of various outcomes by counting the number of favorable outcomes and dividing by the total number of possible outcomes.
