There are 36 permutations of rolling two standard dice. Of them, four (1+4, 2+3, 3+2, and 4+1) sum to five, and three (6+4, 5+5, and 4+6) sum to ten. The probability, then of rolling a multiple of five is 7 in 36, or about 0.1944.

When rolling a sixsided die a possible event is rolling a sum which is a multiple of 5 What is the probability of this event?
The probability of rolling a multiple of five on a standard die is 1 in 6, or about 0.1667.The probability of rolling a 10, 15, or higher is zero, because the question implied only one die.
What is the probability of not rolling sum of 6 with two fair dice?
The probability of not rolling a sum of six with two fair dice is 1 minus the probability of rolling a sum of six. There are 36 permutations of rolling two dice. Of these, five sum to six, 1+5, 2+4, 3+3, 4+2, and 5+1. The probability, then of rolling a sum of six is 5 in 36. The probability, then of not rolling a sum of six is 31 in 36, or about 0.8611.
What is the probability of rolling sum that is a multiple of 5?
That would depend upon what it is that is being rolled.
What is the probability of rolling a sum that is a common multiple of 2 and 3 on 2 number cubes?
It is 1/6.
What is the probability of rolling sum that is a multiple of 3?
That would depend entirely upon what it is that is being rolled.
What is the probability of rolling a sum of 7 when rolling one die twice?
The probability is 1/6.
What is the probability of getting a sum less than five when rolling dice?
There are 36 permutations of two dice. Of these, 6 have a sum less than five, 1+1, 1+2, 1+3, 2+1, 2+2, and 3+1. The probability, then, of rolling a sum less than five on two dice is 6 in 36, or 1 in 6, or about 0.1667.
What is the probability of rolling a sum of 15 on two fair dice?
Zero is the probability of rolling a sum of 15 on two fair dice; the maximum value is 12.
What is the probability of rolling a sum of 8 on at least one of two rolls of a pair of number cubes?
The probability of rolling a sum of 8 on one roll of a pair of dice is 5/36.The probability of not rolling a sum of 8 on one roll of a pair of dice is 31/36.The probability of rolling a sum of 8 twice on two rolls of a pair of dice is(5/36)(5/36) = (5/36)2 .The probability of rolling first a sum of 8 and then rolling a sum that is not 8 on thesecond roll is (5/36)(31/36).The probability of rolling a sum that is not 8 on the first roll and rolling a sum of 8in the second roll is (31/36)(5/36).So The probability of rolling a sum of 8 at least one of two rolls of a pair of dice is(5/36)2 + (5/36)(31/38) + (31/36)(5/36) = 0.258487654... ≈ 25.8%.
