The answer to your question is C

Preston Dalton · Answer 2

D: 2/36

Why do you think there are only two ways to roll the same number twice? You could roll a 1 two times, or you could roll a 2 two times, or a 4 two times, or a 6 two times. There are 6 ways to roll the same number twice: 6/36. Why did you think it was only 2/36?
