• Yes, because all of the probabilities are between 0 and 1 inclusive and the sum of all the probabilities is 1.
• No, all probabilities are not be between 0 and 1 inclusive
• No, the sum of all the probabilities is not 1.
• Yes, because the distribution is symmetric

In a particular game, a fair die is tossed. If the number of spots showing is either four or five, you win $1. If the number of spots showing is six, you win $4. And if the number of spots showing is one, two, or three, you win nothing. You are going to play the game twice.
The probability that you win $4 both times is

• 1/6
• 1/3
• 1/36
• 1/12
