Question 516186: A single die is rolled twice. Find the probability of rolling a 5 the first time and a 3 the second time. Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form. Answer by gc2000(22) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! This is "probability of a" times "probability of b".
Prob of rolling a 5 is 1/6, then prob of rolling a 3 is 1/6.
1/6 * 1/6 = 1/36
The probability of first rolling a 5, then a 3, is 1/36.
