Question 247575: Find the probability of rolling 3 successive 2's with 3 rolls of a fair die.
Answer by oberobic(2304)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The probability of rolling any single number using one die is 1/6.
So, the probability of rolling a 2 is 1/6.
.
With independent events, you multiply the consecutive probabilities.
So, the probability of rolling 3 consecutive 2's is: 1/6 * 1/6 * 1/6 = 1/216.
