Question

What is the probability of rolling a 3 on two consecutive rolls of a fair 6-sided die?

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{1}{36}$ chance

Step-by-step explanation:

Each time you roll a die, you have a $\frac{1}{6}$ chance of rolling a 3. It's even rarer to roll two 3s in a row, and to find a consecutive probability, we have to multiply the two probabilities. In this case, both probabilities are $\frac{1}{6}$.

$\frac{1}{6}\cdot\frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{36}$
