There are 36 possible outcomes. Of these the following 8 meet the requirements:
(1,3), (2,2), (3,1), (1,5), (2,4), (3,3), (4,2) and (5,1).
So the probability of 4 or 6 is 8/36 or 2/9
two dice are thrown once. write all the possible outcomes. find the probability of getting: (i) a total of 12 (ii) a total of 3 (iii) a total of 8
1/36
The probability is(the total number of numbers on the spinner minus 5)/(the total number of numbers on the spinner)Another way to express the same probability is1 - 5/(the total number of numbers on the spinner)
total outcomes = 36chances of sum to be 6 are (1,5) or (2,4) or (3,3)so probability = 3/36 = 1/12
For any particular trial, the total probability is 1.

You have not given any information about the shape and numbering of the dice nor how many are thrown each time. Without that information it is not possible to answer the question.
If they are normal dice, the probability is 0.
It is 1/36.
The probability is(the total number of numbers on the spinner minus 5)/(the total number of numbers on the spinner)Another way to express the same probability is1 - 5/(the total number of numbers on the spinner)
Throwing two dice, there are a total of 36 combinations (1-1, 1-2, 1-3, etc.), each of which has the same probability. Of these, the following give a sum of nine: 3-6, 4-5, 5-4, 6-3. That makes four favorable cases, or a probability of 4/36.
There a formula: Probability = No. of Cases in favour / Total no. of cases
-- Total number of cards = 52.-- Number of diamonds = 13 .-- Probability of success = (# of successes)/(# of total possibilities) = 13/52 = 25% .
Probability are the odds of something happening but has multiple answers. Such as probability of getting a 5 in a fair dice would be 1 out of 6 because there are 6 numbers on a dice altogether, and ONE chance of getting a 5 from the total of 6. Therefore, the probability of getting a 5 or any number from a dice would be 1/6.
The probability of getting a 2 on a six sided die is 1/6. The probability of rolling a 5 is 1/6 The probability that any of the six numbers will come up is 1/6. Probability is found by "the number of ways of getting the favorable event/the total number of possibilities". Since there is only one number 2 on a a die, then there is only one way to get the favorable event. The total number of sides on a die is 6, so there are six different possibilities total that can come up. So, probability of rolling a 2 is 1/6.
total outcomes = 36chances of sum to be 6 are (1,5) or (2,4) or (3,3)so probability = 3/36 = 1/12
