Answer:

1 / 216

Explanation:

Each time you roll a die, there are 6 different numbers you can land on, all with an equal chance. The probability of getting a specific number is 1/6. Probability is the number of desirable outcomes over the total outcomes.

Using the fundamental counting each stage of rolling a die has 6 outcomes, and we are going through 6 stages, so 6^3 or 216 is the total number of outcomes.

We only have one desirable outcome rolling 5, 5, and 5.

Therefore, the final probability would be: 1 / 216
