By:
(5/6)^9 = 0.194
|
|
By:
That is the probability .^
|
|
By:
If P=a/b then odds against are (b-a)/a.
EG P= 1/3 odds against = (3-1)/1 |
|
By:
I make it odds of 9/5 in my head
odds against 4 appearing with 1 dice are 5/1, therefore with 9 dice 5/9 therefore odds AGAINST must be 9/5, shirley! |

I ask as im am going to the casino on sunday and am doing the 6 line and if I win only once in 9 goes I will be up. so I was thinking what Is the chance of winning or losing in this scenario?

By:
I should let you know its single zero roulette

By:
kenny, you`re adding the probabilities, rather than multiplying them. If you have a 5/6 and 5/6 double, you don`t get paid at 10/6.
With six dice thrown on average there should be one `four` with every throw. With more than six dice thrown, you will be getting more than one four, on average, meaning a four is more likely to appear than not to appear, making it a mathematical odds-on shot. So, it can`t be 9/5. Andriy has it right, rounded to 1.2 or 1/5 |

By:
thanks timbuctooth I thought the other answers looked a little wrong
|
|
By:
Incidentally there is no difference in these odds for one die thrown 9 times and 9 dice thrown simultaneously.
|
|
By:
1.166666666666 x 9 equates to almost exactly 3/1
|
|
By:
1.16 x 9 = 10.44
What has that got to do with OP's question? |
|
By:
Andriy is correct
0.194 = 4.15/1 |
|
By:

Andriy did do a sum correctly, but didn't answer the question correctly. Pumphol didn't even do his bizarre sum correctly. You are the first person to actually answer the question. |
|
By:
The odds are 104/25 and the probability is (5/6)^9.

1.16 x 9 = 10.44 What has that got to do with OP's question? Well I was doing 1.166 x 1.166 ( 9 times ) to get the 3/1 Now that may be the wrong formula & even wrong answer but I would have thought you would have at least seen where I was going with the 1.16 & 9 ( the nine equating to nine dice or nine throws ) so the 1.16 x 9 equating to 10.44 is not what I meant especially when I said I made it around 3/1, so your dave1357 20 Apr 16 14:57 Pumphol didn't even do his bizarre sum correctly. My formula or lack of it was wrong but you wrote 10.44 not me, but thanks anyway for being so condescending. |

so is it more or less than 80% chance a 4 would not come up = about 5-1 ?
|
|
By:
No, it's a 19.38% chance that a 4 will not come up
|
|
By:
0.833333⁹ = 0.833333×0.833333×0.833333×0.833333×0.833333×0.833333×0.833333×0.833333×0.833333 = 0.19380600176481308
