Possibilities for the first cube = 6 .
Possibilities for the second cube = 6 .
Possibilities for both cubes = 6 x 6 = 36 .
Ways to throw a total of 6 = 5 ways .
1 . 5
2 . 4
3 . 3
4 . 2
5 . 1
Probability of throwing a total of 6 = 5/36 = 138/9% .
3 out of 36 possible rolls (1 & 3, 2 & 2, 3 & 1), so 3/36, or 1 out of 12.
Theoretical probability is the number of ways something can occur divided by the total number of outcomes. So, the theoretical probability of throwing a coin and it landing on heads is 1/2 or 0.5 or 50%.
With standard dice, zero.
In one throw, it is 3/36 or 1/12
Probability is desired options over total options. There are 6 faces on a standard dice, so NOT rolling a 5 is 5/6.
3 out of 36 possible rolls (1 & 3, 2 & 2, 3 & 1), so 3/36, or 1 out of 12.
You have not given any information about the shape and numbering of the dice nor how many are thrown each time. Without that information it is not possible to answer the question.
Probability(Total = 7) = 15/216 = 0.069 Probability(Total = 13) = 21/216 = 0.097
Theoretical probability is the number of ways something can occur divided by the total number of outcomes. So, the theoretical probability of throwing a coin and it landing on heads is 1/2 or 0.5 or 50%.
When you throw 2 6-sided dice, there are 36 ways they can come up. Of those, 4 (1 and 4, 2 and 3, 3 and 2, 4 and 1) total 5. So the probability is 4 chances in 36, or 1 in 9 (1/9 = 0.11111...)
With standard dice, zero.
There are two main methods: the empirical method and the theoretical method. Suppose you want the probability of throwing a 6 on one roll of a die. Empirical method: Throw the die lots and lots of times and count the total number of throws as well as the number of throws that result in a 6. The probability of throwing a six is the number of times you get a 6 divided by the total number of throws. Theoretical method: A die is a cube with six equal faces. Assuming the die is fair, each face has an equal probability of turning up. There are no other outcomes possible (the probability of the die ending up on an edge or a vertex are assumed to be zero). So, there are six outcome, and each equally probable, so that each has a probability of 1/6.
In one throw, it is 3/36 or 1/12
This is an example of an INDEPENDENT event: The probability of throwing a double six with two dice is the result of throwing six with the first die and six with the second die. The total possibilities are, one from six outcomes for the first event and one from six outcomes for the second, Therefore (1/6) * (1/6) = 1/36th or 2.77%. The two events are independent, since whatever happens to the first die cannot affect the throw of the second, the probabilities are therefore multiplied, and remain 1/36th.
Probability is desired options over total options. There are 6 faces on a standard dice, so NOT rolling a 5 is 5/6.
Probability is the number of ways an event can occur divided by the number of total events. The number of ways a red ace can occur is 2 (ace of hearts, diamonds) and total number of events is 52 (standard deck has 52 cards). So the probability is 2/52 or 1/26.
