Question

What is the probability of getting atleast one pair of six in 24 rolls of two dice?

Answer 1

However, when two dice are thrown 24 times, the probability of getting at least one double-six is a little less than 1/2. Why are the two probabilities not the same, given the fact that Pr{double-six for a pair of dice} = 1/36 =1/6. · Pr{a six for a single die}, and you compensate for the factor of 1/6 by throwing 6.
