Expert Answer
The maximum number that we can get is 6 in the third roll.
Then, the second can have 5, 4, 3, 2.
and for each of these the first roll can have (4,3,2,1), (3,2,1), (2,1), (1).
Hence there are 4+3+2+1 = 10 ways.
Similarly if the third roll gives a number 5 then,
there are 6 ways.
Similarly if the third roll gives a number 4 then,
there are 3 ways.
Similary if the third roll gives a number 3 then there is only one way.
Hence the probability = 20/216 = 5/54.
