You roll 2 six-sided dice. Give the probability of rolling the total 2.

The only way to roll a two is 1+1. So out of the 6*6 possible outcomes, you only have one success.

What is the probability?

1/36

Good job!

To find the probability of rolling a total of 2 with two six-sided dice, we need to determine the number of ways we can obtain a sum of 2 and divide it by the total number of possible outcomes.

To visualize this, we can use a table:

Dice 1 | Dice 2 | Sum
----------------------------
1 | 1 | 2

From the table, we can see that there is only one way to obtain a sum of 2: by rolling a 1 on both dice.

Now, let's determine the total number of possible outcomes. Since there are 6 sides on each dice, the total number of outcomes for rolling two dice is 6 * 6 = 36.

Therefore, the probability of rolling a total of 2 is 1/36.

In general, to find the probability of an event, you need to divide the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes.
