If a human being rolls an unfair and very biased die, that has a 30% chance of rolling a 6, a 28% chance of rolling a 1 and a 10.5% chance for any number other than a 6 or 1, what would be the minimum total rolls necessary for the cumulative number the dice rolled to be 89, and what would be the chance of it occurring?
15; 5.022 E-9
