Investigate the probability of someone rolling a die and the probability of it landing on particular number for a player to win the game
... We have been asked to investigate the probability of someone rolling a die and the probability of it landing on particular number for a player to win the game. For A to win he/she must roll a 1 and if he/she does this they have won the game. For B to win, first of all A must lose and they must roll 2 or a 3 and then they have won the game. For C to win they must roll a 4,5 or 6 and of course B must have lost. I have to investigate these tasks: 1. The probability of A, B or C winning. 2. Who will be the most likely winner? 3. Most likely length of the game. I have first of all drawn a tree diagram so it is easier to interpret and it is easier to see things visually: From this I tried to find the probability that no one
