Question 1142698: A peculiar die has the following properties: on any roll the probability of rolling either a 6, a 1, or a 1/2 is , just as it is with an ordinary die. Moreover, the probability of rolling either a 4, a 5, or a 3 is again 1/2. However, the probability of rolling a is , not as one would expect of an ordinary fair die.From what you know about this peculiar die, compute the following.
The probability of rolling either a 2, a 5, or a 3
The probability of rolling either a 6 or a 1
