You roll a pair of six-sided number cubes, numbered 1 through 6. What is the probability of rolling two odd numbers? (Enter your

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

1/4 or 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability for rolling an odd number is 50% or $\frac{1}{2}$ because there are 3 odd numbers, (1, 3, 5) and 6 total outcomes (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6). $\frac{3}{6} =\frac{1}{2}$

The probability for rolling two odd numbers in a row is

$\frac{1}{2} *\frac{1}{2} =\frac{1}{4}$

So, the probability of rolling an odd number twice is 25% or $\frac{1}{4}$ .
