A fair die is tossed repeatedly until a 6 is obtained. Find the probability if die is tossed 3 times.

Nikhil Sharma

Dear Nikhil

probability of obtaining 6 in one time= 1/6

in two time= (5/6)*(1/6)

in three time = (5/6)*(5/6)*(1/6)

total probability is sum of above three

=91/216

All the best.
