Question

Jamar rolls a 1-6 number cube three times. What is the probability he will roll an even number, then a 6, then a 4?

Answer 1

$\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{6} = \frac{5}{6}$

Answer 2

The probability for the even number is 3/6 meaning that there are 3 even numbers out of 6 present 2 4 6

The other two are just 1/6 each.

The answer is 3/6 * 1/6 * 1/6 which is 1/72. (The three and one of 6s cancel 3/6 is actually 1/2.
