When rolling two six-sided dice, which we’ll call die A and die B, each die has 6 faces. The total number of outcomes when rolling two dice can be calculated by multiplying the outcomes of die A by the outcomes of die B. This means:
6 (outcomes of die A) × 6 (outcomes of die B) = 36 possible outcomes.
Here is a comprehensive table listing all the possible outcomes:
