Rolling doubles When rolling two fair, 6-sided dice, the probability of rolling doubles is 1/6. Suppose Elias rolls the dice 4 times. Let W = the number of times he rolls doubles. The probability distribution of W is shown here. Find the probability that Elias rolls doubles more than twice.

16.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate your chance of rolling doubles, add up all the possible ways to roll doubles (1,1; 2,2; 3,3; 4,4; 5,5; 6,6). There are 6 ways we can roll doubles out of a possible 36 rolls (6 x 6), for a probability of 6/36, or 1/6, on any roll of two fair dice. So you have a 16.7% probability of rolling doubles with 2 fair six-sided dice.
