Algebra.Com's Answer #621147 by fractalier(6550)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! You would divide the number of ways you can get 16 by the total number of ways three six-sided dice can come up (that would be 6^3 or 216)... \n" ); document.write( "6,6,4 \n" ); document.write( "6,4,6 \n" ); document.write( "6,5,5 \n" ); document.write( "5,6,5 \n" ); document.write( "5,5,6 \n" ); document.write( "4,6,6 \n" ); document.write( "are the six ways you can get 16... \n" ); document.write( "Thus the probability of rolling a 16 is \n" ); document.write( "6/216 or 1 in 36... \n" ); document.write( " |
