Dice Probability Question

[swiggidy]

That's not going to answer the same question. DUCY?
EDIT: It might be a better experiment for the monopoly scenario, though.

This is his statement:
The probability of rolling 3 doubles in a row is (1/6)^3

Not: "If I roll the dice x times, how often do I get three doubles in a row"

Yes, I realize those are different.

It's cool for maths to find a way to answer this question, but it seems overly complicated since it isn't just (1/6) to the third.

I can't remeber what the percent was for this, but I remeber people preferred to simulate a game. It honestly seems much easier to just program rolling 2 dice over and.over and then just searching for strings of doubles.

Edit: bleh, seems like that's what u guys are arguing over. Carry on lol. Alls I know is that the chance of rolling into jail is dependent on what you rolled before.
