Math Problem Statement
what are all the possible answers for rolling 2 dice
Solution
When rolling two six-sided dice, each die has 6 faces, numbered from 1 to 6. The total number of possible outcomes when rolling the two dice is the product of the number of faces on each die:
These outcomes can be organized as pairs , where is the result of the first die, and is the result of the second die. Here are all the possible outcomes:
- (1, 1)
- (1, 2)
- (1, 3)
- (1, 4)
- (1, 5)
- (1, 6)
- (2, 1)
- (2, 2)
- (2, 3)
- (2, 4)
- (2, 5)
- (2, 6)
- (3, 1)
- (3, 2)
- (3, 3)
- (3, 4)
- (3, 5)
- (3, 6)
- (4, 1)
- (4, 2)
- (4, 3)
- (4, 4)
- (4, 5)
- (4, 6)
- (5, 1)
- (5, 2)
- (5, 3)
- (5, 4)
- (5, 5)
- (5, 6)
- (6, 1)
- (6, 2)
- (6, 3)
- (6, 4)
- (6, 5)
- (6, 6)
