When rolling a die there are six possible outcomes: rolling a one, two, three, four, five or rolling a six. When rolling for a one, there is one chance out of six to get a one. When rolling for a two, again there is one chance out of six to get a two. The same follows for each of the numbers on the face of a die. Jennifer listed the outcomes in a chart and the probability of each outcome based on six total possible outcomes.
