Q. You roll a 6-sided die two times.What is the probability of rolling a 3 and then rolling a 5?Simplify your answer and write it as a fraction or whole number._____
Die Probability: Since the die is fair and 6-sided, the probability of rolling any specific number on one roll is 61.
Rolling a 3: The probability of rolling a 3 on the first roll is 61.
Rolling a 5: The probability of rolling a 5 on the second roll is also 61.
Independent Events: Since the two rolls are independent events, the probability of both events occurring is the product of their individual probabilities.
Calculate Probability: Calculate the probability of rolling a 3 and then a 5 by multiplying the probabilities of each event.Probability = (61)×(61)=361
