Get ready for some math fun with dice! Each time you roll, multiply the two numbers that appear.
Write your answers in the boxes and see how many correct products you can find!
Let’s roll into multiplication magic and become a Dice Math Master!
Dice Math Practice — Roll and Multiply
0 / 7
Try these before or after you print the worksheet. The printable needs a real die; this one has the dice built in. Multiply the two faces. Because the dice only go up to six, this is the whole of the times tables up to 6 × 6 — and every answer here is one you will meet again.
Roll 1
Multiply the two dice.
3 × 4 = 12. Think of it as 3 groups of 4.
Roll 2
Multiply the two dice.
6 × 6 = 36. Think of it as 6 groups of 6.
Roll 3
Multiply the two dice.
2 × 5 = 10. Think of it as 2 groups of 5.
Roll 4 — a double
A double — both dice show the same number. Multiply them.
4 × 4 = 16. Doubles are worth learning by heart; they come up in every dice game.
Question 5 — select all that apply
Select every result you could actually get by multiplying two dice, then press Check.
1, 2, 30, 36 can be multiplyed from two dice; 37, 7 cannot. The smallest is 1 and the largest is 36.
Question 6 — put them in order
Two dice can land 36 different ways. Click these results in order, from the one with the fewest ways to make it to the one with the most.
1 (1 way) < 2 (2 ways) < 4 (3 ways) < 6 (4 ways). There is only one way to roll 1, but 4 ways to roll 6 — which is why they do not turn up equally often, however fair the dice are.
Question 7
Which result comes up most often when you multiply two dice?
6, with 4 of the 36 possible rolls. The results at the ends — 1 and 36 — have only one way each, so they are the rarest.
Think about it
3 × 4 and 4 × 3 give the same answer. Does that work for every pair?
What is the largest product two dice can make? What is the smallest?
Which products can you make in more than one way? 12 is a good one to start with.
Why can you never roll a product of 7 with two dice?
