Question

Two six-sided dice are tossed onto a table. Each side of the dice are labeled 1 − 6. What is the probability that when tossed, the two dice both land on the same number?

Answer 1

1/6

Explanation:

Total outcome of rolling two fair dice: 6 x 6 =36

possible outcome of landing on same number: (1,1)(2,2)(3,3)(4,4)(5,5)(6,6)

= 6

probability: 6/36 = 1/6
