A biased round spinner is used in board game. When the spinner is spun once, probability of scoring each of the numbers on the spinner is given in the table below:
Number 1 2 3 4 5
Probability 0.12 0.35 0.2 0.08 0.25
I exhausted all the possibilities and yet can't the answer.
Here are they(the possible outcomes)
1,2,3
3,2,1
2,3,1
1,3,2
2,1,3
3,1,2
4,1,1
1,1,4
1,4,1
Answer is 0.096731 but my answer's is 0.05 something. Please verify.
Your question is? Find the probability that sum of 3 spins is 6?
What about 222?
6(0.12x 0.35x0.2)+3(0.12x0.12x0.08)+ (0.35x0.35x0.35)
=0.096731
