Two (6-sided) dice roll probability table
| Roll a… | Probability |

When 2 dice are rolled find the probability of getting?
Probabilities for the two dice
| Total | Number of combinations | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| 10 | 3 | 8.33% |
| 11 | 2 | 5.56% |
| 12 | 1 | 2.78% |

What is the probability of getting doublet when two dice are thrown simultaneously?
Probability of getting a doublet = 6/36 = 1/6.
What is the probability of getting twin prime numbers when two dice are thrown at a time?
Hence probability of getting a prime number on both dice is 1/4.
What are all the possible outcomes of rolling 2 dice?
Note that there are 36 possibilities for (a,b). This total number of possibilities can be obtained from the multiplication principle: there are 6 possibilities for a, and for each outcome for a, there are 6 possibilities for b. So, the total number of joint outcomes (a,b) is 6 times 6 which is 36.
What is the probability of rolling 2 sixes in a row?
The probability of rolling two sixes on two rolls is 16 as likely as one six in one roll.
