"one dice" = die

6. mathmath333

what was that from satellite

7. welshfella

and there are 5 ways of getting not 2 some call a dice a die

8. welshfella

is it 3*5*5 - or is that too simple!!!

9. anonymous

i think it may be $$3\times 36$$

10. mathmath333

it is 75

11. anonymous

oh no, EXACTLY one die is a five

12. anonymous

is a two whatever go with @welshfella

13. imqwerty

one die = a die ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

14. anonymous

first die is a 2, then 25 possible outcomes second die is a 2, then 25 third die is a 2, then 25 $3\times 25$ or as @welshfella said $$3\times 5^2$$

16. mathmath333

5*5*3=75 got it

17. imqwerty

u just fix one die on which u have a 2 and then find out the number of all possible combinations that can be made with the other 2 dies (exclude the 2) and then multiply the answer by 3 :P

18. mathmath333

19. imqwerty
