What is the probability that 6 rolls of a fair die will show exactly three fives?

The probability of getting three fives in the first three rolls and non-fives in the next three rolls is; P(5,5,5,N5,N5,N5) = 1/6 x 1/6 x 1/6 x 5/6 x 5/6 x 5/6 = 0.002679... The number of different order in which the fives can come out is given by; 6C3 = 6!/[3!∙(6-3)!] = 20 So the probability that in 6 rolls of a fair die exactly three fives (in any order) will come out is; P(three fives any order) = (20)∙(1/6)3∙(5/6)3 = 0.05358... ~ 5.4%

It is a certainty. If the die is rolled often enough, the probability that two consecutive rolls show a six is 1.


Suppose you roll a die 3 times What is the probability that the face 6 will never show up?

The probability that a six will never show up in three rolls of a die is 125 in 216. The probability that a six will not show up in one roll is 5 in 6. Raise that to the third power to get 125 in 216.
