Q:

Four dice are thrown simultaneously. Find the probability that all of them show the same face.

A) 1/216 B) 1/36
C) 2/216 D) 4/216
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 1/216

Explanation:

The total number of elementary events associated to the random experiments of throwing four dice simultaneously is:

 

6*6*6*6=64

 

n(S) = 64

 

Let X be the event that all dice show the same face. 

 

X = { (1,1,1,1,), (2,2,2,2), (3,3,3,3), (4,4,4,4), (5,5,5,5), (6,6,6,6)}

 

n(X) = 6

 

Hence required probability = n(X)n(S)=664 =1216
