One enterprising gambler decides to take a bet that if he flips a coin 6 times in a row and then rolls a die 6 times in a row, he will get exactly 3 heads or 3 sixes. What are his odds of winning the bet? (Answer to the nearest hundredth percent)
P=(63)(12)3(12)3×(63)(16)3(56)3
(6!3!×(6−3)!)×0.53×0.53×(6!3!×(6−3)!)×(16)3×(56)3=0.0167448988340192
= 1.7644...%
