de Mere's ProblemThe probability of getting at least one ``6'' in four rolls of a single 6-sided Die is
 | (1) |
which is slightly higher than the probability of at least one double 6 in 24 throws,
 | (2) |
de Mere suspected that (1) was higher than (2). He posed the question to Pascal, who solved the problem andproved de Mere correct.See also Dice References
