It is given that,three envelopes contains $ 533 check and another 3 Envelope contain $ 1039 check.We can consider that any of three checks contain $ 533 and another three $ 1089.

Expectation

[tex]E(x)=x_{1}p_{1}+x_{2}p_{2}+x_{3}p_{3}+x_{4}p_{4}+x_{5}p_{5}+x_{6}p_{6}\\\\\frac{1}{6} \times [533+533+533+1039+1039+1039]\\\\=\frac{1}{6} \times [4716]\\\\=786[\tex]

E(x)=786
