Q4 Loaded Dice A red die and a blue die are thrown. Both dice are loaded (that is, not all sides are equally likely). On the red die, rolling a 3 is half as likely as rolling each of the other five numbers. On the blue die, rolling each even number is twice as likely as rolling each odd number. For each of the following questions, you should write your answer as an expression. Do not give the final numeric value. For example, you should write C(4,2)/24) instead of 0.375. Q4.1 What is the probability of each outcome on the red die? Q4.2 What is the probability of each outcome on the blue die? Q4.3 What is the probability that the sum of the numbers on the two dice is equal to 5?
