if you are talking about getting a roll that totals 6 - there is only one way to roll that - get all ones. as such there are 6^6 -1 = 46656 -1 = 46655 other ways to roll the dice. so the odds of not rolling a total of 6 with 6 dice is 46655/46656 = .~99.997857%.

If you are talking about not rolling a 6 on ANY of the dice, there are 5 ways to roll each die that will give you something other than 6 so the number of ways to not roll any 6's is 5^6 = 15625. That means the odds of not rolling any 6's on 6 dice is 15625/46656 = ~38.489798%

What is the size of the sample space for all the outcomes possible from rolling four dice?

There is 6 possible outcomes per roll of a die. So, there are 6*6*6*6 outcomes or 64 or 1296 possible outcomes.


What is the size of the sample space for all the outcomes possible from rolling 6 dice?

If we roll 2 dice simultanosly the sample space consists of 6 rows and 6 col so the answer is 6*6 i.e 36 elements.If we roll 6 dice simultanosly the sample space consists of 36 rows and 36 col so the answer is 36*36 i.e 1296 elements.


If you roll a dice 100 times how many times would you roll a two?

There are six possible outcomes. Assuming the probability of each outcome is the same (dice has no defects), then you are likely to roll the number two, 100/6=50/3=16.67 times.


What is a possible set of outcomes?

The set of possible outcomes is the set of different ways in which an event might or might not happen. Take a very simple example: If you roll a dice you will roll a 6 or a 5 or a 4 or a 3 or a 2 or a 1. So there are 6 different possible outcomes, all of which are equally probable. If you roll 2 dice at the same time the possible total scores are are from 2 ( a 1 and a 1) to 12 (a 6 and a 6), so there are 11 possible outcomes, but not all equally probable.
