Answer 1

Solution:

we are given that

Joachim wants to win the giant monkey at the carnival game. To do so, he'll need to roll two ones with a single toss of a pair of number cubes.

As we knows that each cube has six faces and on each face we have diffrent numbers 1 through 6.

So probability of getting six on any cube$=\frac{1}{6}$

So probability of getting six on any cube simultaneously $=\frac{1}{6}*\frac{1}{6}$

The probability that he will win the monkey $=\frac{1}{6}*\frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{36}$

Answer 2

$\frac{1}{6} \times \frac{1}{6} = \frac{1}{36}$
Answer: 1/36
