Three dice are thrown together . Find the probability of getting a total of at least 6 ? Correct Answer 103108

Number of events of getting a total of less than 6 (event of getting a total of 3, 4 or 5) = 10 i.e. (1, 1, 1), (1, 1, 2), (1, 2, 1), (2, 1, 1) (1, 1, 3), (1, 3, 1), (3, 1, 1), (1, 2, 2), (2, 1, 2), (2, 2, 1). Therefore, probability of getting a total of less than 6 Number of favorable outcomes P(E6) = Total number of possible outcome = 10/216 = 5/108 Therefore, probability of getting a total of at least 6 = 1 - P(getting a total of less than 6) = 1 - 5/108 = (108 - 5)/108 = 103/108 These examples will help us to solve different types of problems based on probability for rolling three dice.
