1030. In a throw of 4 dice, find the probability that at least one die shows up 4.


Let p be the probability of throwing 4
therefore space space space space straight p space equals space 1 over 6 comma space space space straight q space equals space 1 minus straight p space equals space 1 minus 1 over 6 space equals space 5 over 6
P(at least one die shows up) = 1 - P(0)
equals space 1 minus straight C presuperscript 4 subscript 0 space open parentheses 1 over 6 close parentheses to the power of 0 space open parentheses 5 over 6 close parentheses to the power of 4 space equals space 1 minus space 1 space cross times space 1 space cross times space 625 over 1296 space equals space 1 minus 625 over 1296 space equals space fraction numerator 1296 minus 625 over denominator 1296 end fraction space equals 671 over 1296.
