A die is thrown 1000 times with the following frequency for the outcomes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 as given below :

$\begin{matrix} O u t c o m e & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 f r e q u e n c y & 179 & 150 & 157 & 149 & 175 & 190 \end{matrix}$

(i) Find the probability of getting a 4 or a 6
(ii) Find the probability of getting a multiple of 3 [ 2 MARKS]

Open in App

Solution

Solution:1 Mark each

Number of times a 4 or a 6 was rolled = 149 + 190 = 339
Probability = 339/1000 = 0.339
Number of times a 3 or a 6 was rolled = 157 + 190 = 347
Probability of rolling a multiple of 3 = 347/1000 = 0.347
