What is the probability that getting a total of the numbers on the dice is at least 23 ?
For the next two (02) items that follow : Four dice are rolled.
- A. \frac{1}{1296}
- B. \frac{1}{432}
- C. \frac{1}{324}
- D. \frac{5}{1296} ✓
Correct Answer: D. \frac{5}{1296}
Explanation
The maximum sum is 24 (6,6,6,6), which occurs 1 way. A sum of 23 occurs with (5,6,6,6) and its permutations, which is 4 ways. Total ways = 5. Probability = 5/1296.
