Question

A standard die is rolled two times. What is the probability that it lands on 5 both times?

Answer 1

Answer:

1/36

Step-by-step explanation:

A die can roll a 1,2,3,4,5,6

P (5) = number of 5's / total

        = 1/6

The 2nd roll is independent so the probability is the same

P (5) = number of 5's / total

        = 1/6

P(5, 5) = 1/6*1/6 = 1/36
