P(event) = number of favorable outcomes/total number of outcomes

To find the probability of rolling a 7, it's important to understand that a standard number cube only goes up to 6.

Therefore, the number of favorable is 0 and since there are 6 sides on a number cube, the total number of outcomes is 6.

So the probability of rolling a 7 is 0/6 or 0.
