So that's 4 in 20 or 1/5

Closest on a d6 is 1/6 (so any single number)

Closest on a d10 would be 2 /10 (so any two numbers, and exactly the same)

Closest on a D12 is either 2 or 3 numbers (giving 1/6 or 1/4)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/536598/5791628.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/536598/5791628.page GMT Dice to hit question It's not hard.
Divide 100 by the number of faces.
To get the chance of success multiply that number by the number of faces that would succeed.
So 15 or better on a d20.
6 chances to succeed on one dice 15,16,17,18,19, 20.
100/20=5
5*6=30
you therefore have a 30% chance to succeed

So on a d20, 1/20 = 5%.
d6, 1/6 = ~17%

So to equal the 'probabilty' of 1 result on a d6, you would capture between 4 and 5 results on a d20.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/536598/5791949.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/536598/5791949.page GMT
