-- The first cube can show any one of 6 numbers. For each of those, the second cube can also show any one of 6 numbers. So there are (6 x 6) = 36 ways the two cubes can fall. -- 5 can be rolled in any of these ways: 1-4, 2-3, 3-2, 4-1 = 4 ways -- 6 can be rolled in any of these ways: 1-5, 2-4, 3-3, 4-2, 5-1 = 5 ways -- The roll can be either 5 or 6 in (4 + 5) = 9 ways. -- Probability = (number of successes) / (number of possibilities) = (9 / 36) = 1/4 = 25 %

Number of possible outcomes of one cube = 6Number of possible outcomes of the other cube = 6Number of possible outcomes of two cubes = 6 x 6 = 36Number of ways to roll a sum of 7 with two cubes = 61 - 62 - 53 - 44 - 35 - 26 - 1Probability of rolling the sum of 7 = 6/36 = 1/6 = (16 and 2/3) percent
On a roll of two dice, the chance of rolling a 3 (one and two) is 2 in 36, or 1 in 18 when reduced.
The sum of two cubes can be factored as below.a3 + b3 = (a + b)(a2 - ab + b2)
If you roll a pair of six sided number cubes the probability of rolling two numbers whose sum is 6 is 5/36 or 0.1389. There are 5 ways to get 6: 1,5 & 5,1 & 4,2 & 2,4 & 3,3. There are 36 outcomes for a roll of 2 dice.
The probability of rolling a sum of 8 on one roll of a pair of dice is 5/36.The probability of not rolling a sum of 8 on one roll of a pair of dice is 31/36.The probability of rolling a sum of 8 twice on two rolls of a pair of dice is(5/36)(5/36) = (5/36)2 .The probability of rolling first a sum of 8 and then rolling a sum that is not 8 on thesecond roll is (5/36)(31/36).The probability of rolling a sum that is not 8 on the first roll and rolling a sum of 8in the second roll is (31/36)(5/36).So The probability of rolling a sum of 8 at least one of two rolls of a pair of dice is(5/36)2 + (5/36)(31/38) + (31/36)(5/36) = 0.258487654... ≈ 25.8%.
If two fair number cubes are rolled, the answers are: Prob(7) = 6/36 = 1/6 Prob(11) = 2/36 = 1/18.
The probability of getting 11 is 2/36 = 1/18. This is because of the 36 ways the dice might land, two of them sum to 11, namely 5 + 6 and 6 + 5.
