P(Atleast one 5)=1−P(No 5)  P(No 5)=((5/6))^3   ⇒P(Atleast one 5)=1−((5/6))^3

$$\mathrm{P}\left(\mathrm{Atleast}\:\mathrm{one}\:\mathrm{5}\right)=\mathrm{1}−\mathrm{P}\left(\mathrm{No}\:\mathrm{5}\right) \\ $$$$\mathrm{P}\left(\mathrm{No}\:\mathrm{5}\right)=\left(\frac{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{6}}\right)^{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{P}\left(\mathrm{Atleast}\:\mathrm{one}\:\mathrm{5}\right)=\mathrm{1}−\left(\frac{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{6}}\right)^{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$
