A die is thrown four times. The probability of getting perfect square in at least one throw is
  1. $\frac{58}{61}$
  2. $\frac{16}{81}$
  3. $\frac{65}{81}$
  4. $\frac{23}{81}$

Solution

From 1 to 6 , we have 1 and 4 as perfect squares. Probability of getting perfect square is one throw of a die $=\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}$ $\therefore$ Probability of not getting perfect square in 4 throws of a die $=\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{2}{3} \times \frac{2}{3} \times \frac{2}{3}=\frac{16}{81}$ $\therefore$ Required probability $=1-\frac{16}{81}=\frac{65}{81}$
