Find the probability of throwing at most 2 sixes in 6 throws of a single die.

Open in App

Solution

The repeated tossing of the die are Bernoulli trials. Let X represent the number of times of getting sixes in 6 throws of the die.

Probability of getting six in a single throw of die, p

Clearly, X has a binomial distribution with n = 6

P (at most 2 sixes) = P(X ≤ 2)
