C Correct answer
Explanation

Total outcomes = 36. Favorable outcomes (same number) = (1,1), (2,2), (3,3), (4,4), (5,5), (6,6) = 6. Probability = 6/36 = 1/6.

AI explanation

When two dice are rolled, there are 6 ways to get the same number on both faces: (1,1), (2,2), (3,3), (4,4), (5,5), and (6,6). Since the total number of possible outcomes is 36, the probability is 6/36, which simplifies to 1/6.
