The probability of rolling snake eyes on any one throw is 1 in 36. The probability of NOT rolling a snake eyes is 35 in 36. The only outcome here which we do not desire is that in which a non-snake eye roll occurs four times in a row, therefore, we take (35/36)^4 to find the probability of NEVER getting a snake eyes, and then subtract that answer from 1 to get the chances for any outcome WITH at least one pair of snake eyes.

The chances are 10.66% of getting at least one snake eyes in four rolls.

What is the probability of rolling a 6 and then a 1 on consecutive rolls of a standard sided number cube?

If you keep rolling the die, then the probability of rolling a 6 and then a 1 on consecutive rolls is 1.The probability is 1/36 for the first two throws.


What are the odds of rolling doubles with one die in 25 rolls?

I'm going to assume you mean rolling the same number twice in a row in 25 rolls. The first won't cause a double, so you just need to consider the odds of rolling the same number as the last for the last 24 rolls. The easier approach is to realize that the probability of rolling at least one double is 1 minus the probability of rolling no doubles. One roll has this probability of not rolling the same as the last: P(different number from last) = 5/6 Since they are independent events: P(no doubles in 25 rolls) = (5/6)24 Now the final probability, of at least one double, is 1 - (5/6)24


How do you get the probability of three dice rolls?

The probability of 3 specific dice rolls is the probability that each one will happen multiplied together. For instance, the probability of rolling 2 then 6 then 4 is the probability of all of these multiplied together: The probability of rolling 2 is 1/6. The probability of rolling 6 is 1/6. The probability of rolling 4 is 1/6. Multiply these together and we get the total probability as 1/216


What is the probability of getting 4 dots on top in rolling two dice?

The probability of rolling a 4 in a die is 1 in 6, or about 0.1667. The probability, then, of rolling a 4 in at least one of two dice rolls is twice that, or 2 in 6, or 0.3333. The probability of rolling a sum of 4 in two dice is 3 in 36, or 1 in 18, or about 0.05556.


What is the probability of rolling a sum of 8 on at least one of two rolls of a pair of number cubes?

The probability of rolling a sum of 8 on one roll of a pair of dice is 5/36.The probability of not rolling a sum of 8 on one roll of a pair of dice is 31/36.The probability of rolling a sum of 8 twice on two rolls of a pair of dice is(5/36)(5/36) = (5/36)2 .The probability of rolling first a sum of 8 and then rolling a sum that is not 8 on thesecond roll is (5/36)(31/36).The probability of rolling a sum that is not 8 on the first roll and rolling a sum of 8in the second roll is (31/36)(5/36).So The probability of rolling a sum of 8 at least one of two rolls of a pair of dice is(5/36)2 + (5/36)(31/38) + (31/36)(5/36) = 0.258487654... ≈ 25.8%.


What is the probability of not rolling a 6 on a number cube?

The probability of not rolling it ever is 0.For n rolls it is (5/6)n sofor 10 rolls it is 0.1615for 20 rolls it is 2.608*10-2for 100 rolls it is 1.207*10-8 and so on.


What is the probability of rolling a positive number out of 150 rolls?

The answer depends on what you are rolling. With an ordinary die, the answer is 1 (a certainty)..


What is the probability of rolling a 2 on a die and then re-rolling the die and getting an even number?

The probability of rolling a 2 is 1 in 6. The probability of rolling an even number is 3 in 6. The probability of doing both, on two rolls, is 3 in 36, or 1 in 12.

What is the possibility of rolling a 2 out of 500 rolls on a six sided cube?

Presumably you are asking what the chance of rolling AT LEAST one 2 is. To do this calculation we first work out the probability of NOT rolling a 2, which is 1/6. We then calculate the probability of NOT rolling ANY 2 in 500 rolls. That is 1/6 to the power of 500. So now that we have the probability of it NOT happening, we subtract that number from 1 to get the probability of it happening. Pr(x) = 1 - 1/6^500 The answer is so close to 1 that it's not worth writing out decimally. Basically 0.999999... with almost 400 nines. It's virtually guaranteed that you will get at least one 2 in 500 rolls. If your question was instead what is the chance of getting ONLY one 2 out of 500 rolls then the answer is basically the opposite - the answer is almost zero.
