Q. You roll a 6-sided die two times.What is the probability of rolling a number less than 4 and then rolling a number less than 4?Write your answer as a percentage.____%
Calculate Probability Less Than 4: Determine the probability of rolling a number less than 4 on a single roll of a 6-sided die. The possible outcomes of rolling a die are {1,2,3,4,5,6}. The numbers less than 4 are {1,2,3}. Therefore, the probability of rolling a number less than 4 is P(Rolling a number<4)=Total outcomesFavorable outcomes=63=21
Independent Event Probability: Since the die rolls are independent events, the probability of rolling a number less than 4 on the first roll and then again on the second roll is the product of the individual probabilities.Using the probability from Step 1, we calculate P(Rolling a number<4 and then Rolling a number<4)=P(Rolling a number<4)×P(Rolling a number<4)=21×21=41
Convert to Percentage: Convert the probability to a percentage.To convert a probability to a percentage, multiply it by 100.(1/4)×100=25%
