What is the mathematical probability of all prophecies coming to fulfillment about Jesus?

To answer this we would need to know how many prophecies were fulfilled. If there were not really any prophecies, then the mathematical probability could be considered 100 per cent, because no prophecy went unfulfilled ( or 0 per cent because none was fulfilled - it is indeterminate).
In fact, there was no genuine prophecy about Jesus in the Old Testament. The most popular supposed prophecy is Isaiah 7:14. A reference to this can be found in Matthew's Gospel at 1:22-23. Matthew was looking for a biblical reference he could use to prove that Jesus was prophesied to be born of a virgin. However, he relied on the Septuagint, an early, flawed Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible. The Septuagint incorrectly translated Isaiah 7:14 to say that a virgin would conceive and bear a child. The correct translation would have been "the young woman", and the young woman in question did have a child a few verses later in Isaiah. The author of the Gospel of Matthew relied on this mistranslation to show that it was prophesied that Jesus would be born of a virgin. Every supposed prophecy of Jesus can be shown not to have been intended as such by the original author. It is only pious Christianity that seeks to prove otherwise.

When rolling a die what is the chance of getting a three?
A die can come up showing numbers 1 2 3 4 5 6 and the probability of any number coming up is the same - one out of six. The chance of throwing a three is one out of six. In maths, this is called the probability of throwing a three, and given as a fraction of one, in this case one sixth 1/6. Chance and Probability mean the same thing, but chance is usually given as one out of six or two out of three or fifty/fifty for example. Probability is a mathematical thing and given as a fraction.A probability of 0 means no chance at all and a certainty has a probability value of 1. A mathematical probability of 0.99 means there is a 99% chance of success, or 99 out of a hundred.

What is the probability that a die will land ona certain number?
There are six sides to a die. If we assume that all sides have the same chance of coming up then each side has a probability of 1 in 6 or 1/6. This is the theoretical probability. Of course if the die is not perfectly shaped and weighted then it will not be 'fair' and the sides will have different probabilities of coming up.
