Question

Suppose you roll 2 dice. Find the probability of rolling a sum of 6

Answer 1

how many possible ways can you roll 2 dice to get numbers that add to 6?
how many possible outcomes are their for rolling 2 dice total?
the probability of a roll that sums to 6 is then the first number divided by the second

Answer 2

okay there's 5+1 4+2 3+3 1+5 2+4 so 5 ways, 1/36, and then idk

Answer 3

yep, 5 ways to get a sum of 6 out of 36 total possibilities
so the probability is that number of ways to get a sum of 6 divided by 36
