There friends Aanya, Manya and Hardik are playing Snakes and Ladders. Hardik is at number 96 and needs a score of 4 on die to win. Likewise, Aanya is at 99 and Manya is at 65 and needs to use Ladder to win. All are sure and eager to score the required number to win the game, but it’s always uncertain to get the required number. Here's the concept of probability arises in their mind.
What is the probability of scoring an even number on the die in Hardik's turn?
Answers
probability of scoring an even number on the die in Hardik's turna is 10
Concept
The probability is the likeliness of happening an event among all the events. It can be calculated as :
probability=number of events/number of total outcomes.
Given
Hardik is at 96, Aanya is at 99,Manya is at 65 and need to use ladder.
To find
The probability that Hardik will get an even number on die.
Explanation
If Hardiik wants to throw a die then the following has to occur:
Aanya does n't win
Manya does n't win
Hardik thrown the die and get even.
Aanya does not win if he gets 1 so the probability will be 5/6
Manya does not win if he doen n't get the ladder and the probability will be 1/2 because it is not given on which number the ladder is present.
Hence the probability that Hardik will get even number on die=5/6*1/2*3/6
=5/24.
