The game is an illustration of probability, and the probability that each player wins is 1/12

How to determine the probability of winning?

From the question, we have the following parameters:

Number of a pair of numbers = 3

A die has 6 possible outcomes.

So, the probability of getting the first pair is:

P1 = 1/6

The probability of getting the second pair is:

P2 = 1/6

The probability of getting the first and the second pairs is

P = 1/6 * 1/6

Evaluate

P = 1/36

There are three pairs of numbers in total.

So, the probability of winning is:

P(Win) = 3 * 1/36

Evaluate

P(Win) = 1/12

Hence, the probability that each player wins is 1/12
