Three fair dice are tossed at random (i.e., all faces have the same probability of coming up). 
What is the probability that the three numbers turned up can be arranged to form an arithmetic progression with common difference one?
$\textbf{(A) }\frac{1}{6}\qquad \textbf{(B) }\frac{1}{9}\qquad \textbf{(C) }\frac{1}{27}\qquad \textbf{(D) }\frac{1}{54}\qquad \textbf{(E) }\frac{7}{36}$
Solution by e_power_pi_times_i

The denominator of the probability is $6^3 = 216$. We are asked to find the probability that the three numbers are consecutive. The three numbers can be arranged in $6$ ways, and there are $4$ triplets of consecutive numbers from $1-6$. The probability is $\dfrac{6\cdot4}{216} = \dfrac{24}{216} = \boxed{\text{(B) }\dfrac{1}{9}}$.
