When tossed, a certain six-sided die has an equal probability of landing on any of the six sides. If the die is tossed 4 times, what is the probability that it will land on the same side each time?  Choose the correct option: A) 1/12 B) 1/18 C) 1/36 D) 1/216 E) 1/1296
On the first toss, the die will land on one of the sides.   On the second toss, the probability of landing on the same side is 1/6.   On the third toss, the probability of landing on the same side is 1/6.   On the fourth toss, the probability of landing on the same side is 1/6.   P(same side four times)=1/6*1/6*1/6=1/216.   The answer is 1/216.
