ChatGPT

Let's solve Questions 3 and 5!

Question 3

A die is rolled once. What is the probability of rolling a number greater than 4?

Solution:

1. A standard die has 6 faces, numbered from 1 to 6.


2. The numbers greater than 4 are 5 and 6.
3. So, there are 2 outcomes that satisfy the condition (rolling a 5 or a 6).

Probability=Number of favorable outcomesTotal possible outcomes


=26=13\text{Probability} = \frac{\text{Number of favorable
outcomes}}{\text{Total possible outcomes}} = \frac{2}{6} = \
frac{1}{3}Probability=Total possible outcomesNumber of favorabl
e outcomes=62=31

So, the answer is: B) 13\frac{1}{3}31


Question 5

There’s a 40% chance of rain tomorrow. What is the probability that it will not rain?

Solution:

1. The probability of rain is 40%, or 0.4.


2. The probability of an event not happening is 1−probability of the event1 - \text{probability of
the event}1−probability of the event.

Probability of no rain=1−0.4=0.6\text{Probability of no rain} = 1 -


0.4 = 0.6Probability of no rain=1−0.4=0.6

So, the answer is: C) 0.6

Let's solve Question 3:

Question 3

Two dice are rolled. What is the probability that the sum of the numbers rolled is
equal to 7?

Solution:

1.
When two dice are rolled, each die has 6 faces, giving a total of 6×6=366 \
times 6 = 366×6=36 possible outcomes.

2.
3.

We need to find the outcomes where the sum of the numbers on the two dice
equals 7.

4.

The pairs that add up to 7 are:

5.

1. (1, 6)
2. (2, 5)
3. (3, 4)
4. (4, 3)
5. (5, 2)
6. (6, 1)

6.

There are 6 outcomes where the sum is 7.

7.

Probability=Number of favorable outcomesTotal possible outcomes


=636=16\text{Probability} = \frac{\text{Number of favorable

So, the answer is: A) 16\frac{1}{6}61

Let's solve Question 3:

Question 3

A bag contains 4 red, 3 blue, and 5 green marbles. If one marble is chosen at random,
what is the probability that it is not green?

Solution:

1. First, find the total number of marbles: 4+3+5=124 + 3 + 5 = 124+3+5=12


2. Next, determine the number of marbles that are not green. Since there are 5 green marbles,
the remaining marbles are red and blue: 4+3=74 + 3 = 74+3=7
3. The probability of picking a marble that is not green is the number of non-green marbles
divided by the total number of marbles: Probability=Number of non-
green marblesTotal marbles=712\text{Probability} = \frac{\text{Number of non-green
marbles}}{\text{Total marbles}} = \frac{7}{12}Probability=Total marblesNumber of non-
green marbles=127

So, the answer is: C) 712\frac{7}{12}127

Let's solve Questions 1 and 5.

Question 1

A coin is tossed three times. What is the probability of getting exactly two heads?

Solution:

1.

When a coin is tossed three times, there are 23=82^3 = 823=8 possible
outcomes.

2.

Possible outcomes:

3.

1. HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, HTT, THT, TTH, TTT

4.

We are looking for outcomes with exactly two heads. These outcomes are:

5.

1. HHT, HTH, THH

6.
There are 3 favorable outcomes out of 8 total outcomes.

7.

Probability=Number of favorable outcomesTotal possible outcomes


=38\text{Probability} = \frac{\text{Number of favorable
outcomes}}{\text{Total possible outcomes}} = \frac{3}
{8}Probability=Total possible outcomesNumber of favorable outco
mes=83

So, the answer is: B) 38\frac{3}{8}83

Question 5

A number is chosen at random from 1 to 15. What is the probability that the number is
a multiple of 3?

Solution:

1.

First, list the numbers from 1 to 15 that are multiples of 3:

2.

1. 3, 6, 9, 12, 15

3.

There are 5 multiples of 3 between 1 and 15.

4.
5.

There are 15 possible outcomes (since the number is chosen from 1 to 15).

6.

Probability=Number of favorable outcomesTotal possible outcomes


=515=13\text{Probability} = \frac{\text{Number of favorable
outcomes}}{\text{Total possible outcomes}} = \frac{5}{15} = \
frac{1}{3}Probability=Total possible outcomesNumber of favorabl
e outcomes=155=31

So, the answer is: A) 13\frac{1}{3}31
