5.3 During a rainy day, a family decided

to play a game of ‘Snakes &

Ladders’.

The idea of the game is to start at 1

and end at 100 by rolling either one

or two dice.

If one die (dice) is used, the player

moves the number of spaces that

appears on the topside of the dice.

If two six sided dice are used, the

player would move the number of

spaces which is the sum of both

dice.

For

example: if a player rolls a ‘3’ on the one dice and a ‘5’ on

the other dice, the player moves eight spaces forward.

5.3.1

If the game was played with one dice, determine the probability of Peter

rolling a ‘5’ on the dice. (2)
