- Multiply the two dice and call out the product, or use the roll to practise times tables in the facts you are learning.

Questions
What is the most likely total with two dice?
Seven. There are six ways to make it out of thirty-six equally likely pairs: 1 and 6, 2 and 5, 3 and 4, and the same pairs the other way round. Two and twelve have only one way each.
Where do I see the total of both dice?
The total shows in big type under the two dice after each roll. Earlier rolls are listed below it, with the total of each, so you can look back at what came up.
Can I roll more than two dice on this page?
Yes. Change How many dice, up to six, and press Roll again. The total then adds up all the dice, which is handy for probability and for games with a handful of dice.
