What are the odds of rolling doubles five times in a row?
The chance of rolling one double is 1/6. This is because die A has a value when it is rolled. The probability that die B has the same number, therefore making a double, is one in six. This is because there is only one number the same as the first die, and 6 possibilities. The chance of doing this again is 1/, since the two rolls are independent of each other. The change of 5 doubles in a row is therefore 1/6 X 1/6 x 1/6 x 1/6 x 1/6. Or otherwise !1/6)^5 This gives an answer of 1/7776.

If a dice has the numbers 1 2 2 3 4 and 5 how many times would the number 2 come up?

When rolling a die what is the chance of getting a three?
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.
