Question: two dice are tossed what is the probability of getting a sum of 6?
Answer: For the odds of these two numbers coming up at the same time, you multiply the odds of one times the odds of the other. 5/6 × 1/6 = 5/36. So the odds that you'll roll 2 dice totalling six are 5/36 each time you roll ( or approximately 1 chance in 7).
