Question 948778: suppose you roll three six- sided dice, explain why the probability of rolling a sum of 19 is 0% and why the probability of rolling a sum from 3 to 18 is 100%. - Answer by Fombitz(32388) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! There are 216 possible outcomes when you roll three dice from 1-1-1 to 6-6-6.
So all possible sums falls between the range of 3 and 18.
So the probability of getting a 19 is 0. It is not possible.
The probability of getting between 3 and 18 is 100%. It will always happen.
