What is the probability of obtaining a sum of 11 in a single throw with 3 dice?
The probability is 27/216 = 3/8 = 0.125
How many times must you throw two standard dice to be sure you get the same sum at least twice?
The probability of gettting a particular sum on a standard set of dice depends on which sum you are seeking. For example, the sums of 2 and 12 have a probability of 1 in 36, or about 0.0278; while the sum of 7 has a probability of 6 in 36, or 1 in 6, or about 0.167.Specifically answering the question; it is not possible to guarantee a particular outcome in a random throw, or in a series of random throws, of the dice. You can only talk about probability. Let's take the worst case of trying to throw a 2 or a 12. Even of you throw the dice 100 times, the probability is only 0.0278100, or about 2.34 x 10-156 that you will not throw the 2 or 12; so, the probability is extremely good that you will throw a 2 or 12 in 100 throws, but it is not guaranteed. That's the thing about probability.
What is the probability of rolling a sum of six or doubles?
It is 10/36 = 5/18 in a single throw of a pair of dice.
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.
You roll 2 dice What is the probability that the sum of the dice is prime and both dice show the number 6?
The probability is 0 since if both dice show the number 6, their sum is 12 which is not a prime.
When two dice are rolled what is the probability of getting a sum of 14?
You can't get 14 with two regular six-sided dice ! The highest you can get with one throw is 12.

When rolling a pair of fair dice what is the probability that the sum of the dice on one roll will be seven?
It is 6/36 = 1/6.
A pair of dice are rolled and the sum on their upturned faces is recorded What is the probability that the sum showing is 8 given that one die is showing a 5?
it depends on how many time you throw the dice. the increase number of your throw, the higher the probability to get 8 that one die is showing a 5. that what my opinion.
What is the probability of rolling a sum of six or doubles?
It is 10/36 = 5/18 in a single throw of a pair of dice.

You roll two dice. What is the probability that the sum of the dice is even or the sum of the dice is less than 6?
33,33333...%
What is the probability that the sum of the dice is odd and both dice show the number 3?
The probability is 0. If both dice show the number 3 then the sum is 6 which is not odd.
What is the expected value of rolling two dice?
The most probable result of rolling two dice is a sum of seven. The probability of rolling a seven is 1 in 6 or about 0.167.All of the other possible sums have decreasing probability, all the way down to 1 in 36 or about 0.0278 for a sum of two or a sum of 12.
What is the probability that the sum of the dice is even or the sum of the dice is greater than 6?
5/6
A pair of fair dice is tossed 3 times find the probability a seven appears 3 times?
The probability that the sum is seven all three times is 1/216.
