Answer:

1/36.

Explanation:

Each event of a die being rolled is an independent event, which means that each time you roll the die does not affect the next time you roll it.

The probability of getting a 1 on the first roll is going to be 1/6, since there is only one 1 on the 6-sided die.

The probability of getting a 1 on the second roll is also going to be 1/6, for the same reason.

So, if both rolls are going to be 1s, the probability that will happen is (1/6) times (1/6), which is 1/36.

Hope this helps!
