if you have two fair dice that are rolled, what is the probability of a sum 6 given that the roll is a 'double'?

3 answers

Given that the roll is a double, there are only 6 possibilities - because each number is rolled twice:

1-6, rolled twice.

So there are a total of 6 possibilities.

How many of those have a sum of 6?

Probability = n/total

thanks!!

5/36
