The first dice can show any number. However the second dice has a 1 in 6 chance of being the same as the first.
Hence the probability of getting two numbers the same is 1/6.

When two dice are rolled what is the probability of getting a total of 27?
If they are normal dice, the probability is 0.
When rolling five dice what is the probability that all 5 dice will be the same number?
The probability of rolling the same number on five dice is (1/6)4, or about 0.0007716.
What is the probability of getting a doublet in a single throw of two dices?
The probability of getting a number on the first dice and the same number on the second dice (e.g. a 3 and a 3) is 1/6 x 1/6 = 1/36. There are 6 ways of getting a doublet (i.e. a double 1, 2 , 3, 4, 5 or 6) so the total probability is 6 x (1/36) = 1/6.
What is a probability of getting a sum Nine when two dice are thrown?
Throwing two dice, there are a total of 36 combinations (1-1, 1-2, 1-3, etc.), each of which has the same probability. Of these, the following give a sum of nine: 3-6, 4-5, 5-4, 6-3. That makes four favorable cases, or a probability of 4/36.
If you roll two dice what are the odds that you get a one or a five?
I suppose you mean, at least one of those numbers. Just calculate the probability of NOT getting any of those, and take the complement. The probability of not getting a one nor a five on a single die is 4/6 or 2/3. For two dice, the probability is 2/3 x 2/3 = 4/9. So, the probability of getting at least a one or a five with two dice is 1 - 4/9 = 5/9.I suppose you mean, at least one of those numbers.

When 1 dice is thrown what is the probability of getting a number greater than 4?
the probability is 2/6 or 1/3
Two dices are thrown simultaneously what is the probability that we get an even number on 1 of the dice?
If two dice (not dices!) are thrown then the probability that you get an even number on one die is 27/36 = 3/4
What is the probability of rolling a dice and getting an odd number?
The probability of getting an odd number in a single throw of a fair die (not dice!) is 1/2.The probability of getting an odd number in a single throw of a fair die (not dice!) is 1/2.The probability of getting an odd number in a single throw of a fair die (not dice!) is 1/2.The probability of getting an odd number in a single throw of a fair die (not dice!) is 1/2.
What is the probability of getting at least one prime number in two dice?
The probability of getting at least one prime number in two dice is 3/4.
What is the probability of throwing a dice and getting the number 1?
Depends on the dice! There are six sides on a dice. The number 1 is on on out of the six sides to the probability of getting a one is 1/6 which is equal to .16666 or 16.6%
If two dice are rolled what is the probability of getting s sum less than 3?
The only number less than 3 that you can get with two dice is 2. The probability of getting a 2 is 1/36.The only number less than 3 that you can get with two dice is 2.

What is the probability of getting an even number with a six sided dice?
It is 0.5
What is the probability of getting a prime number on throwing a dice?
1 out of 2.
What is the probability with 2 dices getting roles on the same number?
The probability of rolling two 6-sided dice and getting the same number on each is 1/32, or "one out of thirty two". This is because there are 6 oppurtunities on each dice, and the probability of getting the same of the 6 oppurtunites on two dice is 6 squared, which is 32.
What is the probability of getting 4 of a kind if 5 identical dice are tossed simulataneously?
If they are fair dice, the probability is 0.0032If they are fair dice, the probability is 0.0032If they are fair dice, the probability is 0.0032If they are fair dice, the probability is 0.0032
What is the probability of getting an even number on a six sided dice?
The probability of getting an even number on a six sided dice is 3 out of 6 or one half because the only even numbers are 2,4,6 (which are all even).
There are 6 numbers on a normal dice What is the probability that if you roll the dice you'll get the number 100?
Since the numbers (number of dots) on normal dice only go from 1 - 6, then I would think the probability of getting the number 100 is zero.
