What is the probability to come at first three positions of 6 horses in the race?

There is not enough information to answer the question properly since that requires knowledge about the horses, their form, the jockeys, the course and other factors. Because of these factors the different outcomes are very definitely not equally likely.
However, if you make the naive assumption that each horse is equally likely to finish in any position, then the probability of the event described in the question is 1/2.

What is the probability of throwing a 1 a 2 and then a 6 in exactly that order?
If a fair die is thrown often enough, the probability is 1.For the first three throws of a fair die, the probability is 1/216.If a fair die is thrown often enough, the probability is 1.For the first three throws of a fair die, the probability is 1/216.If a fair die is thrown often enough, the probability is 1.For the first three throws of a fair die, the probability is 1/216.If a fair die is thrown often enough, the probability is 1.For the first three throws of a fair die, the probability is 1/216.
What is the probability that a family continue to have children until they have a boy will have more than three children?
The answer to this is 1 minus the probability that they will have 3 or fewer children. This would happen only if they had a boy as the first, second or third child. The probability they have a boy as first child is 0.5 The probability they have a boy as second is 0.25 The probability they have a boy as third is 0.125 Thus the total probability is 0.875 And so the probability they will have more than three children is 1-0.875 or 0.125
When tossing a fair coin the probability of getting three heads in a row is?
In a large enough number of tosses, it is a certainty (probability = 1). In only the first three tosses, it is (0.5)3 = 0.125
What is the probability of rolling 5 on one die three times in a row?
In the long run, it is a certainty. In the first three throws it is 1/216.
What is the probability that you roll a six and one and three?
If the order of the numbers matters, then:The probability of a 6 on the first roll is 1/6.The probability of a 1 on the second roll is 1/6.The probability of a 3 on the third roll is 1/6.The probability of all three is (1/6 x 1/6 x 1/6) = 1/216 = 0.00463 = 0.463 % (rounded)If you're not concerned about the order of the rolls, only the probability of getting all three numbers, then:The probability of getting any one of them on the first roll is 3/6, or 1/2.The probability of getting one of the other two on the second roll is 2/6, or 1/3.The probability of getting the final one on the third roll is 1/6.The chance of all three without order then is (1/2 x 1/3 x 1/6) = 1/36 or 2.778% (rounded)
