You are throwing darts at a dart board. You have a 16 chance of striking the bull's-eye each time you throw. If you throw 3 times, what is the probability that you will strike the bull's-eye all 3 times?
Answer:
The probability is \(\frac{1}{216}\)
Step-by-step explanation:
It must be 1/6 as 16 is not reasonable.
Given is - You are throwing darts at a dart board. You have a 1/6 chance of striking the bull's-eye each time you throw.
So, if we throw 3 times, the probability that it will strike the bull's-eye all 3 times is given by :
\(\frac{1}{6} \times \frac{1}{6} \times \frac{1}{6}\)
= \(\frac{1}{216}\)
