Question

You roll a 6-sided die two times. What is the probability of rolling a 2 and then rolling a number less than 2?

Write your answer as a fraction or whole number.

Answer 1

The rolls are independent. P(first = 2) = 1/6 and P(second < 2) = P(second = 1) = 1/6, so the probability is (1/6)*(1/6) = 1/36.
