In dice, a Yahtzee is when one rolls 5 dice, and all of them come up with the same number. Given that there are 5 dice, with 6 sides each, the total number of ways to roll them is 6^5, or 7776. There are 6 ways to roll a Yahtzee, since all dice can roll any number from 1 to 6. This means that the probability of a Yahtzee is 6 in 7776, which can be simplified to 1 in 1296, or about 0.07%. On which roll are you most likely to roll a Yahtzee? (This is different from how many rolls it will take on average.) The text file below contains an answer and explanation.
