The probability of tossing a die and getting three 6's in a row is (1/6)3, or about 0.004630.
This probability is (1/6)6.
4/52 = 1/13 There are 4 sixes (the numerator) There are 52 cards (denominator) Reduce your fraction You have 4 chances out of 52 that the card you pick will be a six (because there are 4 sixes in the 52-card deck)
It is 0.1389 approx.
1/36
The probability of tossing a die and getting three 6's in a row is (1/6)3, or about 0.004630.
When you throw a die, there are six possibilities. The probability of a number from 1 to 6 is 1/6. This is classical probability. Compare this with empirical probability. If you throw a die 100 times and obtain 30 sixes, the probability of obtaining a 6 is 30/100 or 0.3. Empirical probabilities change whereas classical probability doesn't.
The probability is 0.0322
This probability is (1/6)6.
In one roll the probability is 1/36.
4/52 = 1/13 There are 4 sixes (the numerator) There are 52 cards (denominator) Reduce your fraction You have 4 chances out of 52 that the card you pick will be a six (because there are 4 sixes in the 52-card deck)
The probability of rolling a six is one in six. The probability of rolling three consecutive sixes is one in 216. (1/6 x 1/6 x 1/6 = 1/216)
It is 0.1389 approx.
1/36
The probability is approx 0.1608
1 in 36
Probability = favorable outcomes / total chances of outcome To find probability of two events happening favorably in succession (like you wanting to roll two sixes in a row), you simply multiply the probably of rolling both sixes together. Thus, (1/6) * (1/6) = 1/36 You have a 1 in 36 chance of rolling two sixes in a row
