In 2 rolls, it's 1/6 = 162/3% if you don't care what the number is.

If you name the number you want before rolling, it's 1/36 = 27/9%.

What are the odds of rolling doubles with one die in 25 rolls?

I'm going to assume you mean rolling the same number twice in a row in 25 rolls. The first won't cause a double, so you just need to consider the odds of rolling the same number as the last for the last 24 rolls. The easier approach is to realize that the probability of rolling at least one double is 1 minus the probability of rolling no doubles. One roll has this probability of not rolling the same as the last: P(different number from last) = 5/6 Since they are independent events: P(no doubles in 25 rolls) = (5/6)24 Now the final probability, of at least one double, is 1 - (5/6)24


What is the probability of rolling the same number when two dice are rolled?

1/6


What is the probability of rolling the same number when three number cubes are rolled?

The first roll doesn't matter for probability, it just sets the number to be rolled by the other two. So: P(rolling the same number three times) = P(rolling a particular number)2 = (1/6)2 = 1/36


What is the probability of rolling an even number on a die and rolling an odd number on a second roll of the same die?

0.25 ( P = 0.5 each time)


What are the odds of 12 numbers out of 37 on roulette not showing of 10 spins Interested in the odds of this happening twice in a row with the same number Thanks?

The probability is 0.0198. The probability of that happening twice is 0.000393 Is this the odds of it happening twice with the same number?


What is the probability of rolling the same number 4 times?

The first number doesn't matter, just that the last three are the same as the first. P(rolling the same as the number before) = 1/6 P(rolling the same number as the first three times = (1/6)3 = 1/216


You roll a dice once what is the probability that you roll an even number?

The same as rolling an odd number... 1:2 or 50% chance.


If a number cube is rolled 4 times what is the probability that the same number is rolled at least twice?

It is 0.722... recurring.


What is the prbability of rolling a five on one die three times in a row?

The chance is one in 216 (6^-3).The probability of rolling a five once is 1/6. Rolling a five again, on the same die or another, will still have a 1/6 chance. Therefore, the probability of the event occurring twice is 1/36 (1/6^2). Three times has a probability of 1/216 (1/6^3), and so on. It does not matter what die is used, as long as it has six sides.The probability p of rolling a number x times consecutively on an s sided die isp=s^-x


What is the probability of rolling a number less that 3 on a number cube?
