A normal die is a six faced cube, so the probability of each face coming up is one in six and there are six possible outcomes. If you throw two dice, then there are 36 (6x6) possible outcomes, and you would simply divide the desired result set by the possible result set. For instance, the probability of throwing a 12 is 1 in 36, while the probability of throwing an 11 is 2 in 36 or 1 in 18 because there are two ways to throw the 11. Similarly, the probability of throwing a 7 is 6 in 36 or 1 in 6, because there are 6 different ways to throw a 7. Continuing with more and more dice, it is a simple matter of counting and arithmetic.

What is the probability of rolling 3 on two consecutive rolls of a fair dice?
1 in 36.
How do you get the probability of three dice rolls?
The probability of 3 specific dice rolls is the probability that each one will happen multiplied together. For instance, the probability of rolling 2 then 6 then 4 is the probability of all of these multiplied together: The probability of rolling 2 is 1/6. The probability of rolling 6 is 1/6. The probability of rolling 4 is 1/6. Multiply these together and we get the total probability as 1/216
What is the probability of rolling exactly one 4 in three rolls of a dice?

What is the probability of rolling an 8 in craps?
11% chance that you will roll an 8 in any dice rolls
What is the probability of rolling a 9 with two dice?
The probability of rolling a 9 with two dice is 4/36 or 1/9. There are 36 possible combinations and a 9 is obtained by rolls of 3,6; 4,5; 6,3; & 5,4.
