Wihout going any further into the specifics of your question - if you even believe that it may impact your profession - my strong suggestion would be that you retain an attorney to represent you.
The probability of an event is the number of favourable outcomes divided by the total number of possible outcomes. What is the total number of possible outcomes of tossing a number cube? 6 How many outcomes are favourable to the event of getting a five? 1 So the prob is 1/6 or 0.16667
In three flips of a fair coin, there are a total of 8 possible outcomes: T, T, T; T, T, H; T, H, T; T, H, H; H, H, H; H, H, T; H, T, H; H, T, T Of the possible outcomes, four of them (half) contain at least two heads, as can be seen by inspection. Note: In flipping a coin, there are two possible outcomes at each flipping event. The number of possible outcomes expands as a function of the number of times the coin is flipped. One flip, two possible outcomes. Two flips, four possible outcomes. Three flips, eight possible outcomes. Four flips, sixteen possible outcomes. It appears that the number of possible outcomes is a power of the number of possible outcomes, which is two. 21 = 2, 22 = 4, 23 = 8, 24 = 16, .... Looks like a pattern developing there. Welcome to this variant of permutations.
Probability is a ratio written as the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of possible outcomes. On a six-sided number cube, there are 5 chances of getting a number greater than or equal to 2 (2,3,4,5,6) and 6 possible outcomes (1,2,3,4,5,6) so your probability would be 5/6.
75%. There are 3 possible ways of getting at least one tail from 2 tosses from a coin:Tail & Tail orHead & Tail orTail & HeadEach of these individual outcomes has a probability of 25% (e.g. the probability of getting a tail and then another tail is 25%). Adding the possible outcomes together gives you a total of 75%.
1/36.Explanation: There will be 36 possible outcomes when you roll two dice.Let us suppose the first number is the outcome of 1 dice and the second number is the outcome of the second dice. Then we have 36 possible outcomes like : (1,1) , (1,2), (1,3), (1,4), (1,5), (1,6) and so on until (6,6). Note that 6 is the highest possible outcome on any dice.When you add the outcomes of both dice you are supposed to get two. In such a case only one outcome is possible of all the 36 outcomes and that is (1,1).Now, by definition, Probability is (No. of favorable outcomes/Total number of outcomes) = 1/36 in this case.
With 3 coin tosses, the possible outcomes are: HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, TTT There are 8 possible outcomes and 3 of them have 2 heads. Thus: probability = 3/8 (= 0.375)
If you don't mind getting thrown out of the game and facing possible criminal assault charges, sure.
Probability is defined as the number of ways an outcome can occur divided by the number of possible outcomes. For the coins, there are 4 outcomes (HH, HT, TH, TT). On the cube, there are 6 possible outcomes. The total number of outcomes is then 4*6 = 24. Since there is only 1 way to obtain HH, look at the cube outcomes. With the HH outcome, the cube would need to fall on a 4. So, there is only 1 way a HH4 can occur. Therefore the probability of getting 2 heads and a four is 1/24 or 0.04167.
there are 36 possible outcomes and 9 ways to get sums divible by 4, so odds are 1 in 4
Assuming you mean when rolling 2 dice, the probability is the number of ways of getting the sum of 5 over the number of possible outcomes. 4 ways of getting 5 (1+4; 2+3; 3+2; 4+1) 36 outcomes (6 x 6) the probability is 4/36 = 1/9
130 instances of 3 heads out of 1024 total possible outcomes=130/1024=0.126953125
Possible outcomes are HH, HT, TH, TT; therefore the probability of HH is 1/4 or 0.25.
