gollark: No, you're right, it's not anything but anything-except-1.
gollark: ... yes, I forgot that.
gollark: Which I think gives you 2/15.
gollark: It would be quite annoying on larger things, but if you had, say, a 3-sided die, a 4-sided one, and a 5-sided one, and wanted to have 2 of them show a 1, then the possibilities are just 1, 1, anything and anything, 1, 1 (order is 3-sided, 4-sided, 5-sided).So you can work out the probability of each case (1/3 * 1*4 * 1 and 1 * 1/4 * 1/5) and add them.
gollark: Enumerate all the different possibilities where you have X dice showing 3, work out the probability of each, then add them?
