Question 827432: The question I need answered is:
1e) Find the probability of scoring a total of 16.
Note (The whole question is about a uniform distribution of fair dice. Question 1d) asked what the different ways to score 16 were, and my answer was "4+6+6" and "5+5+6". That's all I could find. Also question 1c) asked what the probability of all three numbers being 6 and the answer was (1/216))
I hope that extra information helps, if the answer can't be provided within 10 hours don't worry about answering the question.
Thank you, KJV Bible student.

1e) Find the probability of scoring a total of 16.
Note (The whole question is about a uniform distribution of fair dice.
Question 1d) asked what the different ways to score 16 were, and my answer was
"4+6+6"; 6+4+6; 6+6+4
"5+5+6"; 5+6+5; 6+5+5
So, P(sum = 16) = 6/216
===============================
Also question 1c) asked what the probability of all three numbers being 6 and the answer was (1/216)).... Correct
==================
