if you are talking about getting a roll that totals 6 - there is only one way to roll that - get all ones. as such there are 6^6 -1 = 46656 -1 = 46655 other ways to roll the dice. so the odds of not rolling a total of 6 with 6 dice is 46655/46656 = .~99.997857%.

If you are talking about not rolling a 6 on ANY of the dice, there are 5 ways to roll each die that will give you something other than 6 so the number of ways to not roll any 6's is 5^6 = 15625. That means the odds of not rolling any 6's on 6 dice is 15625/46656 = ~38.489798%

What is a probability of a sum of seven if you roll two dice?

The probability of a sum of seven if you roll two dice is 6/36 or 1/6. There are 6 ways to roll a 7; (6,1) (5,2) (4,3) (3,4) (2,5) & (1,6) and 36 possible outcomes.

When you roll a dice what is the probability it will land on 1?

You cannot roll "a dice" because it is one die, many dice. If you roll an ordinary, 6 faced die, the probability that it will land on 1 is 1/6.

What is the size of the sample space for all the outcomes possible from rolling four dice?

There is 6 possible outcomes per roll of a die. So, there are 6*6*6*6 outcomes or 64 or 1296 possible outcomes.


What is the size of the sample space for all the outcomes possible from rolling 6 dice?

If we roll 2 dice simultanosly the sample space consists of 6 rows and 6 col so the answer is 6*6 i.e 36 elements.If we roll 6 dice simultanosly the sample space consists of 36 rows and 36 col so the answer is 36*36 i.e 1296 elements.


If you roll a dice 100 times how many times would you roll a two?

There are six possible outcomes. Assuming the probability of each outcome is the same (dice has no defects), then you are likely to roll the number two, 100/6=50/3=16.67 times.


What is a possible set of outcomes?

The set of possible outcomes is the set of different ways in which an event might or might not happen. Take a very simple example: If you roll a dice you will roll a 6 or a 5 or a 4 or a 3 or a 2 or a 1. So there are 6 different possible outcomes, all of which are equally probable. If you roll 2 dice at the same time the possible total scores are are from 2 ( a 1 and a 1) to 12 (a 6 and a 6), so there are 11 possible outcomes, but not all equally probable.


What is the probability that if you roll the dice you'll get the number 100?

That depends on what kind of dice you are rolling and how many of them you roll. If you roll two 6-sided dice once, the probability of getting the number 100 is exactly zero. You cannot get a 100 on one roll of two 6-sided dice. Other dice and different numbers of them may yield different probabilities.
