A die is biased so that the probability of throwing a 5 is 0.75 and the probabilities of throwing a 1, 2, 3, 4 or 6 are all equal.

  1. The die is thrown three times. Find the probability that the result is a 1 followed by a 5 followed by any even number.
  2. The die is thrown 90 times. Using an appropriate approximation, find the probability that a 5 is thrown more than 60 times.
