Probability of Rolling a Sum of 7 with Two Six-Sided Dice

What is the Probability of Rolling a Sum of 7 with Two Six-Sided Dice?

When rolling two six-sided dice, there are a total of 36 possible outcomes (6 x 6 = 36).

Out of these 36 outcomes, there are 6 ways to roll a sum of 7:

  • (1, 6), (2, 5), (3, 4), (4, 3), (5, 2), (6, 1)

Therefore, the probability of rolling a sum of 7 with two six-sided dice is calculated as:

Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes

Probability = 6 / 36 = 1/6

So, the probability of rolling a sum of 7 with two six-sided dice is 1/6.
