What is the probability of getting less than 10 when you roll a dice?

A die normally has six sides with the numbers 1 to 6 on them, so any roll will be less than 10 and thus the probability of getting less than 10 with a die is 1.
With two normal dice, the sum of the digits on the dice added together ranges from 2 to 12 and the probability of getting less than 10 is the same as 1 minus the probability of getting 10 or more.
There are 36 ways the two dice can fall and 10 can be achieved in 3 ways (4&6, 5&5, 6&4), 11 can be achieved in 2 ways (5&6, 6&5) and 12 in 1 way (6&6).
Thus the probability of getting 10 or more with 2 dice is (3+2+1)/36 = 6/36 = 1/6
So the probability of getting less than 10 is 1-1/6 = 5/6

If you roll 2 dice what is the probability of getting a 2 or 3?
When you roll 2 dice, the number of possible outcomes is 6x6 =36. From these 36 outcomes 3 are a 2 or 3 [(1,1), (1,2), (2,1)]. So the probability of getting a 2 or 3 is: P(2 or 3) = 3/36 = 1/12 = 0.08333... ≈ 8.3%
If five dice are rolled simultaneously what is the probability of getting 5 of a kind in a single roll?
If we are thinking of getting a '6', here are the odds. Wth one dice, its 1 in 6. So,with two dice its 1 in 216 with three dice its 1 in 7776 with four dice its 1 in 279936 with five dice its a huge 1 in 10077696
When rolling a pair of fair dice what is the probability that the sum of the dice on one roll will be seven?
It is 6/36 = 1/6.
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.

If you roll a number cube twice what is the probability of rolling a 6 and a 2?
Assuming that a dice roll is purely random, there is a 1 in 6 probability of landing on any number. Since the second roll depends on the probability of the first, they factor together: First Roll: 1/6 Second Roll: (1/6)(1/6) = 1/36 If you were rolling both dice at once, however, the math would be completely different.
What is the probability of getting less than 6 when you roll a fair dice?
It is 5/6.
What is the probability of getting an integer when you roll a dice?
One.
What is the probability of rolling 2 dice and getting a sum less then 13?
The probability is certain or 1. The max you can roll is 12 so it is certain the sum will be less than 13.
You roll two dice. What is the probability that the sum of the dice is even or the sum of the dice is less than 6?
33,33333...%
What is the probability of getting a two on a single roll of dice?
1:6
What is the probability of getting a 2 with one roll of the dice?
1 out of 6 times,or 16.67% probability.
You roll two dice what is the probability that the sum of the dice is less than 6 and one die shows a 2?
The probability is 5/36.
What is the probability of rolling 2 dice and getting 2 sixes?
In one roll the probability is 1/36.
What is the probability of getting a multiple3 when you roll a dice?
It is 2/6 = 1/3
What is the probability of getting a 7 on one roll of a die?
The probability of getting a 7 on one roll of a die is zero.If you meant to ask about two dice, the probability is 6 in 36, or 1 in 6.
If 11 is the sum and you roll two dice what is the probability of getting 11 if you toss the dice 54 times?
The probability of getting 11 with one throw of 2 dice is 1/6*1/6*2 = 1/18 So the probability of not getting 11 with 1 throw of the dice is 17/18. Tossing the dice 54 times, the probability of not getting 11 54 times is (17/18)54 = 0.0456... So the probability of at least 1 roll of 11 is 1 - 0.0456 = 0.954
What is the probability of getting a six when you roll a dice?
The answer depends on how often you roll it! For one roll it is 1/6 but the probability increases to a near certainty as you increase the number of rolls.
