Question

In playing Monopoly, rolling doubles three times in a row sends you to jail. What is the probability of rolling three consecutive doubles? a. 0.167 b. 0.5 c. 0.00463 d. 18.0

Answer 1

Answer:c 0.00463

Explanation:

1/6×1/6×1/6=1/216

Answer 2

to find the probability you must multiply the probability of rolling doubles by itself 3 times.

to roll a double of any number you have to have the same number on a six-sided die that can be represented as 1/6 times 1/6 = 1/36 chance per roll


`(1)/(36) * (1)/(36) * (1)/(36) = (1)/(46656)`

there is a 1 in 46656 chance in rolling doubles 3 times in a row.
