What is the probability rolling prime numbers when rolling two dice?

Assuming you mean the sum of the two dice is a Prime number, then:
The possible outcomes are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11 which occur 1, 2, 4, 7, 2 times respectively.
There are 36 possible outcomes
→ pr(prime_sum) = (1+2+4+7+2)/36 = 16/36 = 4/9
If you mean that both dice must show a prime number, then:
The possible primes are 2, 3, 5 → probability of 1 die showing a prime number is 3/6 = ½
→ probability both show a prime number is ½ × ½ = ¼
If you mean either or both dice could show a prime number, then:
The possible primes are 2, 3, 5 → probability of 1 die showing a primes is 3/6 = ½
→ probability of a die not showing a prime is 1 - ½ = ½
→ probability of neither die showing a prime is ½ × ½ = ¼
→ probability of either or both dice show a prime is 1 - ¼ = ¾

The probability of rolling a 7 with 2 dice is 6/36; probability of rolling an 11 is 2/36. Add the two together to find probability of rolling a 7 or 11 which is 8/36 or 2/9.
What is the probability of two prime numbers when rolling two dice?
The probability of rolling two prime numbers on a standard pair of dice is 1 in 4, or 0.25. Take the probability of rolling a prime on one die, 3 in 6, or 1 in 2, or 0.5, and square it.
What is the probability of not rolling prime numbers on both dice?
It is 1/4.
What is the probability of rolling a prime number on a 6 face dice?
If the numbers are 1 to 6, there are three prime numbers in that range, a probability of 50%.
When rolling two dice what are the odds of rolling both even numbers?
The probability of rolling two even numbers on two standard dice is 0.52, or 0.25.
What is the probability of rolling three even numbers on six dice?
The probability is 5/16 = 0.3125
What is the probability that you get a prime number with one dice and a tail on a coin?
The prime numbers from 1-6 are 2, 3, 5 (1 is not prime). There are 3 prime numbers on a dice and 6 total. therefore the probability of rolling a prime is 3/6. The probability of getting a tails when flipping a coin is 1/2. Therefore you just multiply the two. 3/6 * 1/2 = 1/4
What is the probability of rolling a prime number on a role of dice?
50% 1/2 0.5
What is the probability of rolling a prime number on a six sided dice?

Odds Rolling prime number sum with roll of two dice?
The probability is 5/12.
Probability of rolling doubles with two dice?
The probability of rolling doubles with two dice is 1 in 6, or about 0.167.
What is the probability of rolling a 5 on a 6 sided dice?
There is always a 1 in 6 chance of rolling ANY number on a six-sided dice, as there are 6 numbers.
What is the probability of rolling two numbers whose sum is 2 equal?
For 6 sided dice, there is only 1 way to get a 2: (1,1). There are 36 outcomes rolling 2 dice; so the probability of rolling two numbers whose sum is 2 is 1/36.
