Question

Probability of rolling two consecutive sixes

A) 1/6
B) 1/36
C) 1/12
D) 1/18

Answer 1

The probability of rolling two consecutive sixes with a fair, six-sided die is 1/36.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability of rolling two consecutive sixes with a fair, six-sided die, we need to multiply the individual probabilities of rolling a six on each roll. The probability of rolling a six on one roll is 1/6, and since the rolls are independent, we can multiply the probabilities. So the probability of rolling two consecutive sixes is (1/6) * (1/6) = 1/36.
