Searching for puzzle apps on my android phone, I encountered “Probability puzzles” by “atorch”. Nice puzzles, although this type of puzzle never was one of my favorites and probably never will be. The app is working well, and the puzzles are varied. Well recommended.
Probability actually has its root in betting and games of chance. I was reminded of this when I was downloading the “Print and play” game Fazenda. Unfortunately the dice were missing.
In the rules of Fazenda, there are three dice. All 18 sides are either brown or blue.
Three dice**/*****
This weeks problem is this
Suppose that the three dice are identical, and that they each have 2 brown and 4 blue sides, what is the chance that at least two brown sides come up?
