A die can come up showing numbers 1 2 3 4 5 6 and the probability of any number coming up is the same - one out of six.
The chance of throwing a three is one out of six. In maths, this is called the probability of throwing a three, and given as a fraction of one, in this case one sixth 1/6.
Chance and Probability mean the same thing, but chance is usually given as one out of six or two out of three or fifty/fifty for example. Probability is a mathematical thing and given as a fraction.A probability of 0 means no chance at all and a certainty has a probability value of 1. A mathematical probability of 0.99 means there is a 99% chance of success, or 99 out of a hundred.

What is the probability of a die landing with a 3 up?
1 in 6, with a one-sided die. You have 6 possible outcomes, all have an even chance of happening. Therefore rolling a three is a 1 in 6, or a 1/6 chance.
What is the chance of not rolling a 5 when you have 6 die?
If it is a fair die, the probability is 5/6.

What is the complement of rolling a die and getting a 4?
The complement of rolling a die and getting a 4 is rolling a die and getting a 1, 2, 3, 5, or 6.
What is the chance of rolling a 6 twice in a row on a die?
The chance of rolling a 6 twice in a row, on a six-sided die, is 1 in 36 or 2.78%. The number of possible different results for rolling a six-sided die twice is 6 squared (6 times 6), or 36, therefore the probability of getting any one of the possible results is 1 out of 36.
What is the experimental probability of rolling a 5 on a standard die if you had trials and 15 successes?
On an unweighted die, regardless of how many successes you've had, your chance of rolling a five will be one in six. The chance of you rolling a die 16 times and getting a five each time would be 1/616, or 0.00000000000035447042. The chance of rolling a die 16 times and getting the same number (regardless of what that number is) each time, would be 1/615, or 0.00000000000212682249 Regardless of how slim that chance is though, your chance on the next roll will still be 1/6. However, if this is meant as a "real world" question, then your chances of rolling the same number so many times in a row is so low that at that point, your odds would be much higher of there being something odd with the die, or with your experiment. At that point, it would be sensible to say that the odds are very good of rolling another 5, regardless of the math, as there seems to be another factor affecting your outcome.
