Question
Find the probability of getting exactly four 3 's in tossing a die 6 times.
Step 1
First, we need to find the number of ways to get exactly four 3's in 6 tosses. This can be done using combinations. We need to choose 4 positions for the 3's out of 6 tosses, which can be done in C(6,4) ways. C(6,4) = 6! / (4! * (6-4)!) = 15 ways. Show more…
