Jan 15, 2015 at 20:19 | comment | added | whuber♦ | This is a generalization of the question asked at stats.stackexchange.com/questions/53154, which is directed at the cases $n=1$ and $n=2$. One of the answers gives a formula for all $n$ and any types of dice (not just six-sided): see "Solution 2" at stats.stackexchange.com/a/53160. | |
