corinne rolls two six sided number cubes with sides labeled 1-6. what is the probability that she rolls a 6 on both side
Are you talking about dice?
P(6) = 1/6
p(6) = 1/6
Probability of both/all events occurring is found by multiplying the individual probabilities.
1/12
To determine the probability of rolling a 6 on both of the number cubes, we first need to determine the total number of possible outcomes when rolling two six-sided dice.
Since each die has six sides, the total number of outcomes for one die is 6 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6). Since we are rolling two dice, the total number of outcomes for both dice can be found by multiplying the number of outcomes for each die. So in this case, 6 x 6 = 36.
Now, to find the number of outcomes where a 6 is rolled on both sides, we can simply count it as there are two independent events and outcomes. The only way both dice can show a 6 is if one die shows a 6 and the other also shows a 6. So, there is only 1 outcome where both dice show a 6.
Therefore, the probability of rolling a 6 on both sides is:
Number of favorable outcomes (where both dice show a 6): 1
Total number of possible outcomes: 36
Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of possible outcomes
Probability = 1 / 36
Hence, the probability of rolling a 6 on both sides is 1/36.
