When you’re playing a game with dice, knowing about probability can help you guess what might happen next!

A regular die has six sides, with numbers from 1 to 6. To figure out the chance of rolling a certain number, you can use this simple formula:

Probability = Number of good outcomes / Total outcomes

Let’s say you want to find out the chance of rolling a 3.

There is 1 good outcome (rolling a 3) and 6 possible outcomes (the six sides of the die). So,

Probability of rolling a 3 = 1/6

Now, let's look at the chance of rolling an even number, like 2, 4, or 6.

There are 3 good outcomes (rolling a 2, 4, or 6) and still 6 possible outcomes. So,

Probability of rolling an even number = 3/6 = 1/2

Using this simple math can help you make better guesses during your games!
