Rolling a 1 and then another 1 when a 6-sided die is rolled twice. To find the probability, you want to find the probability of rolling a one. What is the probability of rolling a one, once?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1?

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

Well. To find the probability. You want to find the possible outcomes. What is the possible outcomes in a die?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have no clue

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

What do you have in a die?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

Hmm. Your on a right track. Just be a little bit more specific. You have a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and a 6. So the possible outcomes of a die is 6. Now how many time do you see 1 out of the 6 possible outcome?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1 time

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

Good. So the probability of rolling a 1, once, is \[\large \large \frac{ 1 }{ 6 }\] Now you want to find the probability of rolling a one, once. Now obviously it is the same probaiblity of rolling a 1, once. (1/6) Now to answer that problem, you want to multiply the 2 fraction. \[\large \large \frac{ 1 }{ 6 } \times \frac{ 1 }{ 6 }=?\]

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

What does that give you?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/36

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

Good job! I hope this help. :)
