Question 1166500: In a dice game, you lose if you roll a sum of 2, win if you roll a sum of 7, and roll again if you roll anything else. What is the probability of rolling the dice at least twice? Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
There are 36 different outcomes when rolling two normal six-sided dice. One of those outcomes is a 2, namely a 1 and a 1. Six of those outcomes are a 7, 1 and 6, 2 and 5, 3 and 4, 4 and 3, 5 and 2, and 6 and 1.
