Good explanation. One small thing though: the last example should result in 24/36.

[@MATHguide]

John, good call! Counting is important!

[@TheVellerophon]

Concerning problem #4 the outcomes are 24/36.

[@MATHguide]

Thank you. You are correct.

[@atillayurtseven4125]

P(rolling 4 < sum < 10) should be 24/36 not 25/36. So the correct answer is 66.66%. Anyway it's still a great video!

[@MATHguide]

You are correct! You have an attention to detail.

question for you. 3 fair die. what is the probability of a single number-doubles and tripples still count or more impirtantly are not discounted.

[@MATHguide]

This question was not worded carefully enough to understand. If you are asking what the probability is of three dice all matching, it is (1/6)(1/6) = 1/36 = 2.8% (roughly).

How can I find the probability of rolling three of the same same number with three dice?

[@MATHguide]

Roll a die. The probability that the second die matches will be 1/6. The probability the third die matches the other two is 1/6. So, (1/6)(1/6) = 1/36 = 0.0277... = 2.778% (roughly).

you messed up buddy.its 24 not 25 on 11.14

[@MATHguide]

Esther, you are correct. Thank you for catching it!

[@jadekayak01]

single 3=two thirds. a double three IS two single threes. as you are not after a cumulative total ANY 3 is acceptable. dont believe me,check out the rules of tai sai/sic bo

Awesome Video!

[@sumainakyasar8857]

Ans of last example is wrong.. answer will be 24/36.......

[@MATHguide]

Yes, you are correct! Sorry about that.

[@nourkellawi]

its 24 over 36 you counted wrong

[@MATHguide]

Yep! This is embarrassing. Thank you for catching it.

[@cinamonloveless4872]

Dude u made a mistake its 24 not 25 so the answer will be 0.66' but nice video

[@MATHguide]

Agreed. Oooopsie!
