<PRE><B>Question 538365</B>
Consider a game consisting of rolling a single fair die. If an even turns up on the roll, you receive you receive the same number of dollars. (For example, if you roll a 6, you get 6 dollars.) If an odd number turns up, you then pay the same number of dollars. (For example, if you roll a 5, you must pay 5 dollars.) What are the expected net winnings of this game?

Expected = (1/6)[2+4+6-(1+3+5)] = (1/6)[3] = $0.50
