<p>I have a question regarding Tip 13 practice problem 6.</p>
<p>If a fair die is thrown three times, what is the probability that a 5 comes up exactly two times?</p>
<p>The solution says: (1/6 x 1/6 x 5/6) x 3 = 5/72</p>
<p>I’m not understanding why it is multiplied by 3.
Isn’t it just 1/6 x 1/6 x 5/6?</p>
<p>thanks</p>
