You and your friend are rolling number cubes. Each cube has 6 sides with the numbers 1 to 6. If a sum of 7 is rolled, your friend gets 1 point. If a 2, 3, or 4 is rolled, you get 1 point. After 108 rolls each, what scores should you expect? Friend: 54; You: 54

Friend: 18; You: 18

Friend: 54; You: 18

Answer:

Friend: 18; You: 54

Step-by-step explanation:

You and your friend are rolling number cubes.

Each cube has 6 sides with the numbers 1 to 6.

Total Outcomes=36

{1,1};{1,2};{1,3}{1,4};{1,5};{1,6}

{2,1};{2,2};{2,3}{2,4};{2,5};{2,6}

{3,1};{3,2};{3,3}{3,4};{3,5};{3,6}

{4,1};{4,2};{4,3}{4,4};{4,5};{4,6}

{5,1};{5,2};{5,3}{5,4};{5,5};{5,6}

{6,1};{6,2};{6,3}{6,4};{6,5};{6,6}

If a sum of 7 is rolled, your friend gets 1 point.

Favorable outcomes for friend = {1,6};{2,5};{3,4};{4,3};{5,2};{6,1}=6

Total outcomes = 36

So, probability of getting a sum of 7 =(6)/(36)=(1)/(6)

Since there are 108 rolls

So, expected score of friend = 108 * (1)/(6)=18

If a 2, 3, or 4 is rolled, you get 1 point.

So, probability of getting 2 = (1)/(6)

So, probability of getting 3 = (1)/(6)

So, probability of getting 4 = (1)/(6)

So, So, probability of getting 2,3 or 4 = (1)/(6)+(1)/(6)+(1)/(6) =(3)/(6) =(1)/(2)

So, your expected score = 108 * (1)/(2)=54

So, option D is correct.

Hence expected score of friend is 18 and yours expected score is 54
Answer 2
Answer: Friend: 18; you: 54
Because you have much bigger chance

How is the process used to divide fractions similar to the process used to multiply fractions?

Answers

Answer:

When we are multiplying any two fractions, we do the following:

(a)/(b) *(c)/(d)

And when we are dividing two fractions, we do the following:

( (a)/(b) )/( (c)/(d) )

We solve such problems by multiplying but we take the reciprocal of denominator.

It will look like (a)/(b) *(d)/(c)

So, basically we are multiplying in both conditions. This is why these are similar.
Well when you divide fractions you are actually using multiplication. Dividing is the same as multilying by the reciprocal
