What are the odds of rolling a 1 in dice?
The probability of rolling a 1 on a die is 1/6 if you roll it once.
What are the odds of rolling 6 of any specific number using 6 dice in one roll?
The odds of rolling any specific number in one roll of one die is 1 in 6. Each die is unrelated, so the odds of rolling the same specific number using six dice in one roll is 1 in 6 to the 6th, or 1 in 46,656.
What are the odds of rolling any three pair of numbers using 6 dice?
The odds of rolling any number in one roll of one die is 1 in 1. The odds of rolling the same number in one roll of one die is 1 in 6. Each die is unrelated, so the odds of rolling a pair using two dice in one roll is 1 in 1 times 1 in 6, or 1 in 6.Now, look at the second pair of dice. The odds of rolling any number other than a number on the first pair is 5 in 6. The odds of rolling the same number in one roll of one die is 1 in 6. Each die is unrelated, so the odds of rolling a pair using two dice in one roll, not the pair in the first roll is 5 in 6 times 1 in 6, or 5 in 36.Now, look at the third pair of dice. The odds of rolling any number other than a number on the first two pairs is 4 in 6. The odds of rolling the same number in one roll of one die is 1 in 6. Each die is unrelated, so the odds of rolling a pair using two dice in one roll, not one of the first two pairs is 4 in 6 times 1 in 6, or 4 in 36.To compute the total odds of rolling three pairs of numbers using 6 dice, simply multiply these odds together. That is 1 in 6 times 5 in 36 times 4 in 36, or 30 in 7776. Reducing that to lowest common fraction, you get 5 in 1296.(This calculation assumes that the three pairs are different. If two or three of the pairs are allowed to be the same, the computation is different.)
Suppose you roll one die what is the probability of rolling an even number?
As there are an equal number of odd and even numbers on a single die, the odds of rolling an even number would be 50/50.
What is the odds of rolling a die of less than a 4?
50%
What are the odds of rolling a 1 in dice?
The probability of rolling a 1 on a die is 1/6 if you roll it once.
What are the odds of rolling 6 of any specific number using 6 dice in one roll?
The odds of rolling any specific number in one roll of one die is 1 in 6. Each die is unrelated, so the odds of rolling the same specific number using six dice in one roll is 1 in 6 to the 6th, or 1 in 46,656.
What are the odds in favor of rolling a 2 or 3 on a single roll of a fair die?
One in every three.
What are the odds of rolling any three pair of numbers using 6 dice?
The odds of rolling any number in one roll of one die is 1 in 1. The odds of rolling the same number in one roll of one die is 1 in 6. Each die is unrelated, so the odds of rolling a pair using two dice in one roll is 1 in 1 times 1 in 6, or 1 in 6.Now, look at the second pair of dice. The odds of rolling any number other than a number on the first pair is 5 in 6. The odds of rolling the same number in one roll of one die is 1 in 6. Each die is unrelated, so the odds of rolling a pair using two dice in one roll, not the pair in the first roll is 5 in 6 times 1 in 6, or 5 in 36.Now, look at the third pair of dice. The odds of rolling any number other than a number on the first two pairs is 4 in 6. The odds of rolling the same number in one roll of one die is 1 in 6. Each die is unrelated, so the odds of rolling a pair using two dice in one roll, not one of the first two pairs is 4 in 6 times 1 in 6, or 4 in 36.To compute the total odds of rolling three pairs of numbers using 6 dice, simply multiply these odds together. That is 1 in 6 times 5 in 36 times 4 in 36, or 30 in 7776. Reducing that to lowest common fraction, you get 5 in 1296.(This calculation assumes that the three pairs are different. If two or three of the pairs are allowed to be the same, the computation is different.)
Suppose you roll one die what is the probability of rolling an even number?
As there are an equal number of odd and even numbers on a single die, the odds of rolling an even number would be 50/50.
What are the odds of rolling a four on one die?
Since there are six sides on a die, the odds of rolling a 4, or any digit for that matter is 1/6
What are the odds of rolling less than a four rolling the die once?
0.5
What are the odds of rolling less that a 4 when rolling a die once?
if you rollid a die once the odds of getting less than four would be 3/6 or 50%.
What is the probability of rolling a two and then a three?
If you roll a die often enough, it is a certainty. If you roll a fair die just twice, the probability is 1/36.
If two dice are thrown what is the probability of the sum of the numbers being a seven or an eleven?
To roll a 7, it doesn't matter what your first die rolls at, as every number on the die has a complement that will add up to 7. This means that your odds on rolling 7 are actually your odds on rolling the appropriate number on the second die. ie. 1/6. No matter what your first die is, the second can potentially give you a number that brings the total to 7. To roll an 11 however, your odds are not as high. This is because you must roll a five and a six to hit 11. Your first die can be either of the two, but your second die must be it's complement. In this case then, your odds are 2/6 * 1/6, or 1/18.
What are the odds of rolling 5 of akind with 5 dice?
The odds of rolling five of a kind with five dice is 1 in 1296. The first die is going to roll something, so the odds are 1 in 1. Each of the other dice have a probability of 1 in 6 of matching the first die, so the resultant probability is (1 in 1) times (1 in 6) to the fourth power.
What are the odds of rolling a 3?
On a single die it is 1 in 6.
