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 chance of getting a 4 in rolling a die?
1/6
What is the chance of rolling a 4 with a single die three times in a row?
The probability of rolling a 4 with a single six-sided die is 1/6. To find the chance of rolling a 4 three times in a row, you multiply the individual probabilities: (1/6) × (1/6) × (1/6) = 1/216. Therefore, the chance of rolling a 4 three times consecutively is 1 in 216, or approximately 0.46%.
What is the probability of getting a three when rolling a six sided die?
1/6
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.
