Divide the number of events that can happen a certain way by the number of all possible events.
Since there are 6 sides to the die, the probability of rolling a 5 on one roll is 1/6. Since each roll is an independent event the probability of the multiple results is the product of the probability of each result. So 2 consecutive 5's would occur with a probability of (1/6)(1/6) = 1/36
John throws a fair 6-sided die. What is the probability he will get a multiple of 2?
The probability is 7/36
It is 1/6.
The probability is 35/36.
The answer depends on whether or not the events are independent.
The product rule states that the probability of two independent events occurring together is equal to the product of their individual probabilities. In genetics, the product rule is used to calculate the probability of inheriting multiple independent traits or alleles simultaneously from different parents.
The probability will depend on how much you know and the extent of guessing.
Probability are the odds of something happening but has multiple answers. Such as probability of getting a 5 in a fair dice would be 1 out of 6 because there are 6 numbers on a dice altogether, and ONE chance of getting a 5 from the total of 6. Therefore, the probability of getting a 5 or any number from a dice would be 1/6.
Well they are independent events so it is the probability of getting a correct answer multiplied by the probability of getting a correct answer on the second question. Short Answer: 1/5 times 1/5=1/25
