Question

What is the most likely score (sum of the 2 upper faces) when 2 dice are thrown???

Answer 1

Yep, its seven like the others have said.  This is why craps is set up like it is.  You are betting that you will get some non-seven number and then roll that number again before a seven comes up.  Since 7 comes up more than any other number, you can see how the casinos can afford all those fancy buildings!

Answer 2

The most probable outcome is 7.  There is a 1 in 6 chance that you role a 7...more than any other sum.  There are 6 possible roles that give you a sum of 7 (6/1, 5/2, 4/3, 3/4, 2/5, and 1/6).  So, out of 36 possible roles, 6 of them give you a sum of 7...hence, 1 in 6.  

FYI, here are the odds of rolling other sums...

2 = 1/36th

3 = 2/36th or 1/18th

4 = 3/36th or 1/12th

5 = 4/36th or 1/9th

6 = 5/36th

7 = 6/36th or 1/6th

8 = 5/36th

9 = 4/36th or 1/9th

10 = 3/36th or 1/12th

11 = 2/36th or 1/18th

12 = 1/36th

Answer 3

7

There's a 1 in 6 chance of totalling 7.

Answer 4

Normally it's seven thats 7 mathematically with highest probability but the gamer takes 7 as a house clearance so u should normally take 6 or 8 with next highest probability, try if u can get 7

chance of sum in order

7   =1 out of 6

6,8

5,9

4,10

3,11

2,12

though the 2, and 12 pair have least chance they draw large amount of money.

rest gamble is luck and depends or dice and person rolling it
