Question 65256: A game involving rolling a pair of 2 dice 24 times. The game is won if at least one double 6 occurs. What is the probably of winning this game? Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! P(getting pair of 6's)= 1/36
P(getting pairof 6's in 24 tries)=24C1(1/36)^1(35/36)^23=0.34875...
