I suppose you mean, at least one of those numbers. Just calculate the probability of NOT getting any of those, and take the complement. The probability of not getting a one nor a five on a single die is 4/6 or 2/3. For two dice, the probability is 2/3 x 2/3 = 4/9. So, the probability of getting at least a one or a five with two dice is 1 - 4/9 = 5/9.

If five dice are rolled simultaneously what is the probability of getting 5 of a kind in a single roll?
If we are thinking of getting a '6', here are the odds. Wth one dice, its 1 in 6. So,with two dice its 1 in 216 with three dice its 1 in 7776 with four dice its 1 in 279936 with five dice its a huge 1 in 10077696
What are the odds of rolling one five with four dice?
The probability that there will be EXACTLY one five when four dice are rolled is 500/1296 = 125/324, or about 38.58%. The odds are 199 to 125 against, or about 8 to 5. The probability that there will be AT LEAST one five when four dice are rolled is 671/1296, or about 51.77%. The odds are 625 to 671 against, or about 14 to 15.
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.
How many sums are there with two dice?
If you roll two dice and add the numbers together, you might get 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, so there are eleven possibilities total. One is not included in this list because that would mean the first dice would roll a one and the second dice would roll a...zero? That's impossible!
What r the odds of roll a 2 twice in a row on one dice?
Rolling 2 twice in a row in the first two rolls is 1/6*1/6 = 1/36. But rolling 2 twice eventually is as close to certainty as you can get.
When two dice are rolled Fine the odds that the score on the dice is either 3?
To roll a three on any one dice, the odds are 1/6. To roll a three on any one of a pair of dice, the odds are 1/6 x 1/6 which is 1/36 or 1 in 36 chance.
If five dice are rolled simultaneously what is the probability of getting 5 of a kind in a single roll?

What are the odds of rolling 6 of any specific number using 6 dice in one roll?
The odds of rolling any specific number in one roll of one die is 1 in 6. Each die is unrelated, so the odds of rolling the same specific number using six dice in one roll is 1 in 6 to the 6th, or 1 in 46,656.
What are the odds of rolling 2 three of a kind using 6 dice in one roll?
1 in 23328
What are the odds of rolling a straight 1-6 using 5 dice in one roll?
Impossible, you can't get 1-6 with only 5 dice.
What are the odds of rolling any three pair of numbers using 6 dice?
The odds of rolling any number in one roll of one die is 1 in 1. The odds of rolling the same number in one roll of one die is 1 in 6. Each die is unrelated, so the odds of rolling a pair using two dice in one roll is 1 in 1 times 1 in 6, or 1 in 6.Now, look at the second pair of dice. The odds of rolling any number other than a number on the first pair is 5 in 6. The odds of rolling the same number in one roll of one die is 1 in 6. Each die is unrelated, so the odds of rolling a pair using two dice in one roll, not the pair in the first roll is 5 in 6 times 1 in 6, or 5 in 36.Now, look at the third pair of dice. The odds of rolling any number other than a number on the first two pairs is 4 in 6. The odds of rolling the same number in one roll of one die is 1 in 6. Each die is unrelated, so the odds of rolling a pair using two dice in one roll, not one of the first two pairs is 4 in 6 times 1 in 6, or 4 in 36.To compute the total odds of rolling three pairs of numbers using 6 dice, simply multiply these odds together. That is 1 in 6 times 5 in 36 times 4 in 36, or 30 in 7776. Reducing that to lowest common fraction, you get 5 in 1296.(This calculation assumes that the three pairs are different. If two or three of the pairs are allowed to be the same, the computation is different.)
If a six sided dice is thrown What is the probability that the score is a five?
You said "a" six sided dice. Though the singular is "die". If you mean one die, the odds are 1 in 6 of it turning up five, or about 16.6%. If you meant two dice, the odds are four out of thirty six, or 1/9th, or about 11%.
What are the odds of eight matching dice out of ten die in one roll?
The odds of one die being any number is 1 in 1. The odds of any of the next seven dice being the same as the first die is 1 in 6. The odds of the last two being different than the first die is 5 in 6. The dice are unrelated to each other, and it does not matter in what order they are thrown, so the odds of eight matching dice out of ten dice is (1 in 1)1 (1 in 6)7 (5 in 6)2, or 25 in 10,077,696.
What is the probability of rolling a five with a pair of dice?
There are 36 possible outcomes when we roll a pair of dice. Rolling a five can be done the following ways: 3-2, 4-1, 2-3 and 1-4. That's four ways to roll a five with one roll of the dice. The odds of rolling a five are 4 in 36, or 1 in 9. That makes the probability of rolling a five equal to 0.11111....We know that the probability of something is a ratio of the number of times it can be done to the total number of things that are possible. Probabilities range from zero to one, inclusive. If something has a probability of zero, it cannot happen. Like rolling a 13. A 13 cannot be rolled with one roll of a pair of standard dice. Thus the probability of rolling a 13 is zero, as it cannot happen.If something has a probability of one, it must happen. Like the probability of rolling an odd or an even number with one roll of a pair of dice. Since any number we roll must be either odd or even, then the probability of rolling an odd or an even number with one roll of a pair of dice is one. An odd or an even number must turn up, and that is why the probability of rolling an odd or an even number with one roll of the dice is one. Lastly, we've seen that the probability of rolling a given number with one roll of the dice is the number of times that number might appear divided by the total number of possibilities that might appear.
What is the possessive form of dice?
The possessive form of the plural noun dice is dice's.Example: I doubled my money one dice's roll. (one roll of the dice)
What is the probability of rolling a 6 with a single roll on a dice?
one in six 1:6 six sides, one of which is a six same odds for any of the numbers
How is it possible to not roll a 6 with 6 dice?
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%
