Answer:So to get a 6 when rolling a six-sided die, probability = 1 ÷ 6 = 0.167, or 16.7 percent chance. So to get two 6s when rolling two dice, probability = 1/6 × 1/6 = 1/36 = 1 ÷ 36 = 0.0278, or 2.78 percent.

Answer:

C.72

Explanation:

rolling a six-sided number cube(6) x flipping a coin(2) x rolling a six-sided number cube again(6)= 72

6x6= 36

36 x 2 = 72

6x2=12

12 x 6 = 72
