    1/6.

    Our culture seems inoculated to this trick now. What's funny is that most people reject the Monte Hall problem now.

    1/6

    A fair die has no memory.

    1 in 6; the previous rolls do not change the probability of any given result. On a fair die, there will always be a 1/6 probability of rolling any of the numbers.

    1/6

    The rolls are independent and if the die is fair, the probability is 1/6 for each roll.
