Question

Your friend rolled a number cube and got number 5. On his next turn he says he won’t be able to get another 5 because his chances are one in every six rolls.

Answer 1

Answer:

he can still get a 5 but he is equally likely to get any other number 1 to 6

Step-by-step explanation:

he has a 1/6 chance of rolling 5 the first turn and it becomes more and more rare to roll lots of 5s in a row

1/6

1/36

1/216

etc

each time the denominator is multiplied by 6 because it is less likely he will roll a 5 so many times in a row
