If you were throwing one numbered cube (dice) with each face numbered 1 to 6, then the chance of getting a number greater than two is 4/6 (or 2/3) since there are 4 numbers greater than 2, and six numbers in total.
Similarly, if you were throwing one dice, the chance of getting a number less than 2 is 1/6.
To determine the probability of getting both of these outcomes on two dice (greater than 2 on one dice and less than 2 on the other) we simply multiply these two values together.
2/3 x 1/6 = 2/18 = 1/9.
So there is a one in nine chance of this outcome occuring.

What is the probability of tossing the dice and it landing on a 2 and then tossing it a second time and it landing of a number greater than 4?
First probability of getting 2 is one in six: 1/6probability of getting no greater than 4 is two chances in six (must be a 5 or 6): 2/6=1/3so probability = 1/6*1/3= 1/18.
