Each chance of a having a girl is 50% or 1/2. Three different children are separate events and so multiplying the chance all three together gives 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2= 1/8. 1 in 8 chances will someone have three girls in a row.

What is the probability of having 3 baby girls in a row?

Assuming that the probability of having a baby girl is 1/2 and that of having a baby boy is 1/2, the probability of having 3 baby girls in a row is (1/2)(1/2)(1/2)=1/8.

What is the chance of a couple having 5 daughters in a row?

The chance of a couple having five daughters in a row can be calculated assuming that the probability of having a daughter or a son is equal (50% for each). Therefore, the probability of having five daughters in a row is (0.5^5), which equals 1 in 32, or about 3.125%. While this is a statistical probability, actual outcomes can vary due to genetic and environmental factors.

What is the probability of having three boys in a row?

This question is extremely poorly phrased. The probability of three boys [sitting] in a row at an all boys school is 1. At an all girls school it is 0 and is otherwise somewhere in between. If the question is about birth order, do you take account of the fact that nearly half the families have two or fewer children? So that in half the cases the probability is 0. Finally, children's genders are not independent events. They depend on the parents' ages and their genes. However, if you assume that they are independent events then, given that the probability of a boy is approx 0.52, the probability of giving birth to three boys in a row is 0.523 = 0.1381


What is th probability of rolling six three times in a row with a six sided dice?

Assuming that the die is a "normal" one (it has the numbers 1 to 6 and that it is fair), then the probability of rolling six three times in a row is 1/6*1/6*1/6 = 1/216 = 0.00463 The probability of rolling six three times in a row eventually is 1 (ie a certainty).
