    Probability of rolling no sixes = (3/4) ^3 = 27/64

    Probability of first one being 6 and the rest Not 6 = 1/4 * 3/4 * 3/4 = 9/64

    THere are 3 ways for this to happen so total probability of 1 six = 27/64

    Therefore Probability of 2 or more sixes = 1 - 2 (27/64) = 10/54 = 5/27

    Answer is 5/27
