4 A fair six-sided die is rolled twice. The random variable \(X\) represents the higher of the two scores. The probability distribution of \(X\) is given by the formula $$\mathrm { P } ( X = r ) = k ( 2 r - 1 ) \text { for } r = 1,2,3,4,5,6 .$$

1. Copy and complete the following probability table and hence find the exact value of \(k\), giving your answer as a fraction in its simplest form.

   \(r\)	1	2	3	4	5	6
   \(\mathrm { P } ( X = r )\)	\(k\)					\(11 k\)

2. Find the mean of \(X\). A fair six-sided die is rolled three times.
3. Find the probability that the total score is 16 .
