Answer:

1/6

Explanation:

All the wording makes it confusing, but it is a simple probability of rolling a 5 out of the 6 faces on the die. It only asks about that time, so the probability doesnt increase or decrease at all depending on what was rolled before

Answer: The theoretical probability that the number cube will land on five is 1/6. The previous outcomes do not affect the probability of rolling a five on the next roll, as each roll of the number cube is independent of the previous roll. Therefore, the probability of rolling a five on the next roll is the same as the probability of rolling a five on any other roll of the number cube, which is 1/6.
