Question 150869
Okay, in order to get total of "5", the minimum Caleb needs to get on 1 dice is "4" and of course we'll based on the worst case scenario of getting the lowest number on the other dice, which is "1". (that total to "5" right?)
.
The probability of getting "4" or better is {{{3/6}}}. Why 3? It can be either 4, 5 or 6, that's why you put 3 possible numbers. Why 6? Of course you know there are 6 possible #'s right?
Now, for the other dice, being the smallest value "1", so the probability of getting this is {{{1/6}}}.
Therefore, if you add the 2 probabilities, {{{3/6+1/6=4/6}}} ----> {{{2/3}}}
Answer: "D"
Thank you,
