What is the chance of a tornado hitting Killeen TX?

Chances are fairly high overall. Killeen has had several weak tornadoes in the past, and a number of strong tornadoes have hit fairly close to the town. The chances of it getting hit at any given time or in any given year, however, are low.


If you select two cards from a deck of 52 cards what is the probability that the first card is an 6 of diamaond and the second card is an 3 of hearts?

First off, how do I calculate the probability that any one event occurs. The answer is equal to: Number of Possible Chances of Success / Total Number of Chances In this case, the number of possible chances of success is one (there is only one 6 of Diamonds in any deck of cards). The total number of chances equal 52 (there are 52 cards to choose from). Therefore the probability of picking a 6 of Diamonds on the first card is 1/52 or .019. In order to calculate the probability that the first card is a 6 of Diamonds AND the second card is a 3 of Hearts, you multiply the two probabilities. Prob. of 1st Card 6D AND 2nd Card 3H = Prob. 1st Card 6D * Prob. 2nd Card 3H We already know the probability of getting a 6 of Diamonds on the first card is 1/52 or .019. To calculate the probability of getting a 3 of Hearts on the second card, it is important to remember that random occurances do not affect the probability of other random occurrances. What I mean is, if I were to draw a 6 of Diamonds from a deck of cards and then replace it, the probability that I would pick a 6 of Diamonds again is the same as it was the first time. Even if I flip a coin 5 times in a row and they all landed on heads, the probability that I would flip another heads is still 50/50. So basically we can ignore what happened on the first draw, and jsut calculate the probability of getting a 3 of Hearts. Again we use our probability formula: Number of Possible Chances of Success / Total Number of Chances In this case, the number of possible chances of success is one (there is only one 3 of Hearts in any deck of cards). The total number of chances equal 52 (THIS ASSUMES THAT WE PUT THE 6 OF DIAMONDS BACK INTO THE DECK AFTER THE FIRST DRAW IF NOT THE NUMBER OF CHANCES IS 51). Therefore the probability of picking a 3 of Hearts on the second card is 1/52 or .019. Multiply the two probabilities together to get the probability of both occurring: 1/52 * 1/52 = 1/2704 = .00037 (or a .037 percent of a chance)


What is the probability of throwing the dice and getting a total of 5 on the first throw and getting a total of 10 on the second throw?

You have not given any information about the shape and numbering of the dice nor how many are thrown each time. Without that information it is not possible to answer the question.


If you flipped two dimes at the same time what are the chances that each dime would come up heads?

2/4


What is the probability of rolling a die and getting a 3 the first time?

There are 6 sides on a die, so the denominator should be 6. The number 3 appears on the dice once, so the fraction probability should be 1/6.

Can you get pregnemt on the first day of your period?

The chances of getting pregnant during your period are unlikely but still present nonetheless. If you have shorter menstrual cycles (the time between the first day of your period and the first day of your next period) This would bring the time of ovulation closer to the time when you would start bleeding, thus increasing your chances of becoming pregnant. Sperm can survive for about 3 days while eggs only survive around 24 hours. The only way to get pregnant is if the sperm is already in your fallopian tube when the egg is released.
