Question

in the game of yahtzee,, on the first roll five dice are tossed simultaneously. what is the probability of rolling five of a kind on the first roll?

Answer 1

the probability of rolling any given number is 1/6.
there are 5 dice so multiply the probabilities

P = (1/6)^5

Multiply by 6 because there are 6 possible ways of rolling 5 of a kind

P = 6*(1/6)^5 = (1/6)^4

Answer 2

thank you very much :)
