What is the probability of getting a sum 9 from two throws of a dice?

There are 36 permutations of two dice.1 Of these 4 have a sum of 9, specifically 36, 45, 54, and 63. Therefore, the probability of throwing a sum of 9 on two dice is 4 in 36, or 1 in 9, or about 0.1111.

1It does not matter it you throw one die two times or two dice once. Since these are independent events, the probabilities are the same either way.

When two dice are rolled find the probability of getting a sum of greater than 15?
Two standard dice cannot have a sum greater than 12. The probability, then, of getting a sum greater than 15 is zero.
What is the probability of getting a sum of six on a six sided dice?
5/36
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 2 dice are rolled what is the probability of getting a sum less than 5?
It is 1/6.

What are the chances of getting a sum of 70 on two dice?
The probability is zero. The largest possible sum on two dice is 12.
When two dice are rolled find the probability of getting a sum of greater than 15?
Two standard dice cannot have a sum greater than 12. The probability, then, of getting a sum greater than 15 is zero.
When two dice are rolled find the probability of getting a sum less than 13?
Assuming these are regular dice, the probability is 1.
What is the probability of getting the sum of 8 from a pair of dice?
It is 5/36.
When two dice are rolled what is the probability of not getting a sum of 12?
The probability of rolling 12 with 2 dice is 1 in 36. The probability of not rolling 12 with 2 dice is 35 in 36.
When two dice are rolled the probability of getting a sum of 16?
With two normal six-sided dice, the maximum sum can only be 12 (6 x 2 dice), so there is zero probability of rolling a sum that adds to 16.
What is the probability of rolling two dice and not getting the sum of two?
35/36
What is the probability of getting a sum of six on a six sided dice?
5/36
When two dice are rolled find the probability of getting a 6 or 7?
Probability that the sum is 6 = 5/36 Probability that the sum is 7 = 6/36
What is the probability of rolling the sum of two if you roll a pair of dice sixty times?
The probability of getting a sum of 2 at least once is 0.8155
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.
What is the probability of throwing a sum of 8 with 2 dice in nine throws?
The first thing to do is isolate how many ways there are to get 8 from two dice. These possibilities are:2,63,54,45,36,2so there are 5 possibilities. The probability of each of these combinations is (1/6)2 or 1/36, so the probability of getting 8 in one throw of 2 dice is 5/36For 9 throws, it is easier to calculate the probability of never getting 8. This is (1-probability of getting 8)9. (1-5/36)9 = (31/36)9 which is 0.26033. So the probability of getting an 8 somewhere along the line is 1-0.26033 or 0.7397
