7 0

Answer:

0.15%

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of rolling a 7 on a 8-sided die will always be:

1/8

We know that for the first two tries that there is 7/8 chance that the die will land on anything but a 7:

=(7/8)\cdot{(7/8)}=49/64=0.77

For the die to land on a 7 the 3rd, 4th and 5th try is:

=(1/8)\cdot{(1/8)}\cdot{(1/8)}=1/512

The probability is therefore:

{1/512)\cdot{(49/64)}=49/32768=0.00149

The probability that the die will land on a 7 not on the first and second try but on the 3rd, 4th and 5th try is 0.15%
