Question

Salene rolls a 1-6 number cube two times. what is the probability she will roll a 6 both times?

Answer 1

The probability is 1 in 36 because there are 36 possible rolling combinations.

Answer 2

When Salene rolls a cube there are six possible numbers that can be rolled twice. A cube has the numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6 on it .

Probability of rolling a 6 in first roll =
`(1)/(6)`

Probability of rolling a 6 in second roll=
`(1)/(6)`

The probability she will roll a 6 both times =
`(1)/(6) X (1)/(6) =(1 )/(36)`
