Question 1172325: Determine the probability of rolling a sum of 7 on first toss of two number cubes and a sum of 4 on the second toss. (1/72) Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! rolling a 7 is the highest probability of sums with two die and is 1/6
a sum of 4 is 3/36 probability (2,2;3,1;1,3)
the product of the two is 1/72. We multiply with joint probability ("and" is the key word)
