AIME 2006b Problem 5

  • Paper
  • Answer

When rolling a certain unfair six-sided die with faces numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, the probability of obtaining face FF is greater than 1/61/6, the probability of obtaining the face opposite is less than 1/61/6, the probability of obtaining any one of the other four faces is 1/61/6, and the sum of the numbers on opposite faces is 7. When two such dice are rolled, the probability of obtaining a sum of 7 is 47/28847/288. Given that the probability of obtaining face FF is m/n,m/n, where mm and nn are relatively prime positive integers, find m+n.m+n.
