A game uses a fair die. You win Rs 30 if a 6 appears and lose Rs 6 otherwise. Over many plays, the long-run probability of winning a single game (getting a 6) is what value?

Question

Accepted Answer

0.167. P(win) = P(6) = 1/6 = 0.1667 (approximately). The money values do not change this probability.
