Best Answer

The chance of rolling one double is 1/6.

This is because die A has a value when it is rolled. The probability that die B has the same number, therefore making a double, is one in six. This is because there is only one number the same as the first die, and 6 possibilities.

The chance of doing this again is 1/, since the two rolls are independent of each other. The change of 5 doubles in a row is therefore 1/6 X 1/6 x 1/6 x 1/6 x 1/6. Or otherwise !1/6)^5

This gives an answer of 1/7776.
