If two dice are rolled together, what is the probability that the values shown will add up to a total of 6

Solution

If two dice are rolled together, what is the probability that the values shown will add up to a total of 6

Solution

\frac{5}{36}

Solution steps

The possible outcomes when two dice are rolled are

6 \cdot 6

Therefore, the number of possible outcomes:

6^{2}

Find the number of favorable outcomes of the values shown will add up to a total of 6:

5

Probability

= \frac{number of favorable outcomes}{total number of outcomes}

= \frac{5}{6 ^{2}}

6^{2} = 36

= \frac{5}{36}
