Answer Posted / saravanan.s
(d) None of the above
because the probability coming 6 in one dice is 1/6
but the person is speaking truth of 3/4 probability
so simply
(3/4)*(1/6)=1/8
and 3/8=0.375
5/8=0.625
3/4=.75
probability of getting a six is 1/6=.1667
do u think that THE PROBABILITY FOR "SAYING THE TRUTH" &
"FALLING SIX IN THE DICE" would me more than the PROBABILITY
FOR FALLING 6 IN A THROW IN DICE .
