Question

If rolling two dice, what is the probability (in %) of rolling doubles?

Answer 1

There are 6 numbers on dice so the chance of both having the same number is 1 in 6 (100 divided by 6) = 16.6666666667% (as many "6"'s as you like before the "7" by the way)

Answer 2

There are 36 possible outcomes of a two-dice roll.  And there are six ways to make doubles: snake eyes (ones), hard 4 (twos), hard 6 (threes), hard 8 (fours), hard 10 (fives), and boxcars (sixes).  Thus, there are 6 ways to make doubles out of 36 possible outcomes, or 1 in 6.  That equals 16.67%.

Answer 3

The answer is 16.6% of hitting a pair on one roll.  That is a one out of 6 chance.

Answer 4

Here is the probability of getting at least one number more than once according to the number of rolls:

Probability of rolling 2 dice to get a pair is 16.67%

Answer 5

well no matter what the first dice rolls, you have a 1 in 6 chance of the second dice rolling that same number.

so 1:6 or 16.666....%
