Answer: 36

One die has a total outcome of 6 elements (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6). Now, if we roll two dice, each time you roll a number on the first die, there are another 6 possible outcomes for the second die.

Therefore, the number of elements in the sample space would be:


6*6=36

There would be 36 elements in the sample space.
