b. 13/18
c. None of the given choices
d. 1295/1296
Sol: B
Explanation:
The number of ways of rolling a dice where no two numbers probability that no one rolls the same number = 6 x 5 x 4 x 3
Now total possibilities of rolling a dice = {6^4}
The probability that a no one gets the same number = \displaystyle\frac{{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3}}{{{6^4}}} = \frac{5}{{18}}
So the probability that at least two people gets same number = 1 - \displaystyle\frac{5}{{18}} = \displaystyle\frac{{13}}{{18}}
