6. ### Simple Probability Question

OK, so I am wondering about something and am not good with probability, but maybe someone here has the answer You have a die with only 4 sides, with the numbers 1-4 written on the sides. You roll the die 5 times. What is the probability of the number 2 showing up: Once? Twice? Three times...
7. ### Not Homework, but need smart explanation. Trying to figure out payout of certain bet.

There is a "money wheel" with 50 slots of dollar amounts the spinner can land on. The dollar amounts are 1$, 2$, 5$, 10$ and 20\$. (The larger the dollar amount the higher the payout but less slots there are for it on the spinner therefore less likely to land on) ex. If you put one dollar on the...
