Two dice are rolled. The probability of getting AT LEAST ONE SIX is:
AOne over six i.e. 1/6 exactly
BOne over three i.e. 1/3 exactly
COne over two i.e. 1/2 exactly
DEleven over thirty six (11/36)
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Eleven over thirty six (11/36)
P(at least one 6) = 1 − P(no 6) = 1 − (5/6)² = 1 − 25/36 = 11/36. Complement makes the calculation efficient.
