Assume that 6,1,2, and 3 are equally likely, a 4 is twice as likely as a 3, and a 5 is three times as likely as a 4.

Question

1) What is the value of w6?

2) What is the value of w4?

3) What is the value of w5?

Answer 1

P(6) = 11 1/9 %

P(4) = 22 2/9 %

P(5) = 33 1/3 %

randomly choose an integer from 1 to 6

when there's 3 fives, 2 fours, and 1 each of 1,2,3,and 6

and P(1)=P(2)=P(3)=P(6)= 1/9

P(4)= 2(1/9) = 2/9

P(5) =3(1/9) = 1/3
