What is the probability of rolling a total of 20 with 10 dice? More generally, what is the probability of rolling x with n dice?

Clarification: Dice = Standard 6-sided die with numbers 1-6

for n dice the number of ways in which one can roll x is given by the coefficint of a^x in (a+a^2+a^3+a^4+a^5+a^6)^n hence the required prob ca be calculated by dividing the result by 6^n
