Answer:  [tex]\dfrac{1}{1296}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula of probability : [tex]\dfrac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}[/tex]

Total number of outcomes for a fair die = 6    (From 1 to 6)

When we roll a die , Favorable outcome of getting six =1

So , The probability of getting a six : P(rolling a six)= [tex]\dfrac{1}{6}[/tex]

Since the events of throwing a fair die again and again are independent events.

So , Probability of rolling four successive 6's  with four rolls of a fair die

=  P(rolling a six) x  P(rolling a six) x  P(rolling a six) x P(rolling a six)   [If event are independent then probability of all occurring together is the product of their individual probability]

= [tex]\dfrac{1}{6}\times\dfrac{1}{6}\times\dfrac{1}{6}\times\dfrac{1}{6}=\dfrac{1}{1296}[/tex]

Probability of rolling four successive 6's  with four rolls of a fair die=[tex]\dfrac{1}{1296}[/tex]
