Question

What is the probability of rolling two 5's in a row on - a dice?

Answer 1

The probability of rolling two 5's in a row on a dice is 1/36.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability of rolling two 5's in a row on a die, we need to determine the probability of rolling a 5 on one roll and then multiply it by the probability of rolling another 5 on the next roll.

Since there are 6 possible outcomes on a die, with only 1 of them being a 5, the probability of rolling a 5 on one roll is 1/6.

Therefore, the probability of rolling two 5's in a row is (1/6) * (1/6) = 1/36.

Answer 2

1/36

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this is a 6-sided die, 5 covers one of these six sides, giving you a 1/6 chance of rolling a 5 the first time.

To determine the probability of two consecutive 5's, simply multiply the two probabilities, 1/6 by 1/6

1/6 x 1/6 = 1/36
