Question

Salene rolls a 1-6 number cube two times. what is the probability she will roll a 6 both times?

Answer 1

The probability is 1 in 36 because there are 36 possible rolling combinations.

Answer 2

When Salene rolls a cube there are six possible numbers that can be rolled twice. A cube has the numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6 on it .

Probability of rolling a 6 in first roll = $\frac{1}{6}$

Probability of rolling a 6 in second roll= $\frac{1}{6}$

The probability she will roll a 6 both times =$\frac{1}{6} X \frac{1}{6} =\frac{1 }{36}$
