On a single die, there are 6 possible outcomes ALL of which are different from 7. This is, 6 out of 6, or 6/6=1.00.

I have a page on Probability on my own website. To find my website, use the easy-to-remember and easy-to-spell website www.mathinlivingcolor.com. Then click on the link at the bottom of this page to take you to my Homepage.
