(3+18)/2 = 10,5 ; meaning 10 and 11 are the two most probable numbers to be rolled using 3 dice.

What is the most common total if you roll two dice?
With n dice* the most common outcome can be found from: most_common = 7n ÷ 2 If n is odd, this results in a fraction and there are actually two most common results which are the whole numbers either side of the fraction (eg with 3 dice, the most common value given above is 21/2 = 10½ which means that the most common value with 3 dice is 10 or 11 - both occur with the same frequency). For two dice this gives: most_common = (7 × 2) ÷ 2 = 7. * As the word "dice" is the plural of the word "die", n > 1.
