Probability Formula
Probability = (Number of Favorable Outcomes) / (Total Possible Outcomes). For multiple dice, outcomes are calculated combinatorially. Example: 1 die with target 3 → 1/6 (16.67%).
How to Use
1. Enter number of dice. 2. Input desired sum. 3. Click Calculate. The tool instantly shows probability percentage and favorable/total outcomes. Use Clear to reset fields.
Development Process
1. Designed UI with HTML/CSS. 2. Added input fields for dice count/target. 3. Implemented JS logic to calculate combinations recursively. 4. Added result display and Clear function. 5. Optimized for user experience and accuracy.
FAQs
How does the calculator work?
It uses combinatorial mathematics to count all possible dice combinations that match your target sum, then divides by total permutations to calculate probability percentage.
Can it handle multiple dice?
Yes. The calculator supports 1-10 dice. Probability complexity increases exponentially with more dice due to outcome combinations.
Is it accurate for non-standard dice?
No. This tool assumes standard 6-sided dice. Non-cubic or numbered dice require custom probability models.
