Question

tasha is playing a game with 2 different types of fair geometric objects.

Answer 1

Answer:

5/48

Explanation:

One object has faces numbered from 1 to 8.

• The sample space of numbers greater than 3 = {4,5,6,7,8}.

Thus:

$P(\text{ rolling a number greater than 3\rparen}=\frac{5}{8}$

The other object has 6 faces labeled M, N, O, P, Q, and R.

$P(\text{ rolling the letter R\rparen}=\frac{1}{6}$

Thus, the probability of rolling a number greater than 3 and the number R:

$\begin{gathered} P(number\text{ greater than }4\text{ and R\rparen}=\frac{5}{8}\times\frac{1}{6} \\ =\frac{5}{48} \end{gathered}$

The answer is 5/48.
