Three fair dice are tossed What is the probability that at least two of them show that same face?
Total number of outcomes = 6 x 6 x 6 = 216
Number of ways that are successful:
1 1 -
1 - 1
- 1 1
1 1 1
2 2 -
2 - 2
- 2 2
2 2 2
3 3 -
3 - 3
- 3 3
3 3 3
etc.
Four ways for each number 1 thru 6 = 24 possible successes. But for each of the one's with a dash (-), there are 5 outcomes (121, 131, 141, 151, 161, 211, 311,411,...etc), so the real number of ways for this to happen is 16 ways for each number: 6 x 16 = 96.
Probability of success = 96/216 = 4/9 = 44.4% (rounded)

If rolling three dice what is the probability of rolling three ones?
The probability of of rolling three ones on three dice is (1 in 6)3, or 1 in 216, or about 0.004630.
A dice is tossed thrice find the probability of getting an odd number at least once?
To find the probability of getting an odd number at least once when a die is tossed thrice, we can use the complementary approach. The probability of not getting an odd number (i.e., getting an even number) in a single toss is ( \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2} ). Therefore, the probability of getting an even number in all three tosses is ( \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^3 = \frac{1}{8} ). Thus, the probability of getting an odd number at least once is ( 1 - \frac{1}{8} = \frac{7}{8} ).
